On Saturday I gave a presentation on blogging to the local chapter of the RWA. Apparently I drew out some of the more reclusive authors -- which is cool; it's always nice to have an interested audience. While for geeks blogging is old news, it's not totally adopted by the professional writing community. The main thrust of my presentation was to encourage writers to use blogging as a marketing tool. I got lots of questions and we went over time. I even got a huge ego boost when a member said she had spent a couple of hours reading my blog the night before ("You love me, you really love me!")

Several members were enthusiastic enough that they signed up with Blogger. One of the converts is the very funny Michael Little, the current chapter president. Check it out!
