Well my experience with this is best decides with a story. I had wanted to borrow some books from BEA10 and I was asking very nicely to borrow them. My good friend Karen shared with me some books, and even the next year she got a couple books off my list. This year I asked some others and more local to me get books this year.
Also where I live I have gotten together with some of my local bloggers and have very good relationships with them. Here is a picture of Jaime, Patricia, and Mindy and I.
I am on twitter and Facebook
This is how I network and I have made some wonderful friends through blogging.
Isn't it great to meet up with fellow bloggers? Its like a bonus!
ReplyDeleteyes it is :)
DeleteI've yet to meet a fellow blogger. I need to work on that.
ReplyDeleteI wish there were more bloggers around my area. How much fun that must be.
ReplyDeleteI love to meet bloggers who live near me. And how fun that you have friends who will share their BEA loot with you!
ReplyDeleteYes its great to share books with local people.
DeleteI would love to meet local bloggers too, that's nice you have so many near you!
ReplyDeleteI am a bit envious since I live so far out in nowhere land. No one out here understands me. I will admit a desire to ask if someone would lend me a book or two from their BEA stash but figured no one would be willing.
ReplyDeleteWow, that'd be cool to live so close to other bloggers. :)
ReplyDeleteSo cool!! :) Glad you have awesome bloggers close to your home! :) :) Twitter Party was completely awesome! I've really enjoyed it! :) Enjoy aBEA! :) ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! How much fun it is to meet up with other bloggers =)
ReplyDeleteyes its fun to meet up with them.

ReplyDeleteThat's fantastic! I love sharing books with other book bloggers! I figure that means we all get to read more awesome books, and the awesome books get more attention! Lol
ReplyDeleteI need to find some bloggers close to me! This looks like a ton of fun!
