I've been itching to blog about this but i had to wait until my copy arrived (thank you, C!) ~ I'm in the spring 09 issue of Artful Blogging, a fabulous seven pages no less! Unfortunately it's not available in the UK so i haven't had the pleasure of seeing it on the shelves, but still, it was pretty sweet getting it through the door. There are some lovely bloggers in the issue with me, including Cori Kindred and Geninne Zlatkis, so do go get yourselves a copy and enjoy it with a mug of coffee. I guess I shouldn't be surprised at how well blogging and magazines mix, considering how blogs are like magazines in so many ways; i love the community aspect of blogging; i love having a magazine in my hands and pages to touch. Yes, it's the perfect mix :)

Congratulations Susannah and what a shame we can't get it here! I agree ~ sometimes it's so much nicer to be able to flick through pages with a cup of tea!

That's fantastic, Susannah! I'm thrilled for you and can't wait to get my hands on this latest issue.
By the way, I get it from The Stamp Attic, a UK online shop which, among other things, sell all the Stampington publications, including Artful Blogging. The magazines are usually available from their site two weeks after their US release.

That's so cool Susannah!! Congratulations. I really do wish that we could buy Artful Blogger here in the U.K.

Oh, the idea of sitting down in a comfy chair with a blog to hand (and a cup of something hot in the other) sounds blissful.
Congratulations on being featured and on such a large feature too!
(Thanks for the tip, Chantal, about where to get Artful Blogging in the UK)

I subscribe to this magazine - albeit it takes ages to receive it, as they have failed to correct my mailing address - and was delighted to find your article and photos inside. Congrats for the well-deserved recognition, Susannah! xo

Hooray! Your piece is well written and your photos look terrific in the magazine. I think the Artful Blogging magazine can be ordered online at http://www.stampington.com.

Susannah,
Would it be possible for you to add a button on your blog that would take us to all your favorite music? I love your recommendations. Alela Diane is beautiful and I have never heard of her.

On having a very rough morning at the office yesterday, I decided to spend my lunch in a quiet corner of the nearby coffee shop. Before I bought my very large caramel, skim, latte, I browsed through the magazine rack. Somehow the bright blue cover of Artful Blogging, a magazine I never heard of before, caught my eye. I took it over to the couch in the corner with my giant cup of coffee and haven't stopped reading it since. Your's is my favorite so far. I have now started a blog, and hopefully with a little nurturing, it will grow into the photographic/art journal I've always known is inside of me. Thank you for your inspiring energy.
...Namaste
