Love
Part
of the reason I started this blog was to talk about my adventures in life with
my two sons who are autistic. I hope by sharing my ups, downs, and everything in between I can help spread awareness and understanding, perhaps even encourage others to talk bout their experiences. The other reason was to share my creative and
artistic side on the web. This has been
a long time wish of mine; I have such a love for art! I always wanted to venture into a career in
art, but years ago I chose to pursue my love of Nursing. So now’s my chance to combine both goals into
one through this blog.
I
have only been blogging for a little over a month now, but I have followed many
blogs for quite some time. One of my
favorite things I enjoy looking at is all the other bloggers creativity and
inspiration that they share. But there
is one difference I’ve come to notice between the autism blogs and the
DIY/Craft/Art blogs. Most bloggers
create blog buttons to share amongst themselves. Each one is created to be unique to their particular
blog. These buttons, as I understand it,
are shared to connect with others who have similar interests. But I have noticed that of the many autism
blogs I follow, very few have blog buttons.
This got my butterfly wings fluttering with some ideas. I would like to use a blog button idea to
connect with autism bloggers as the other bloggers do. I would really like to get some feedback from
others on this idea if possible. I understand some of you run your blog as more of a personal journal or venting space. I would like to perhaps
make a page in my blog where I could display buttons from other autism bloggers. I would hope this would not only attract more
readers for my blog as well as yours, but increase the autism awareness in blog
land. Of course this is still a project
in the beginning stages, but its progress depends on the participation of
others. Please let me know if anyone is
interested! You can contact me through
Email or Facebook, or even drop me a comment below.
For those of you who follow
my Autistic Angel Adventures, I have created a button just for you to share (copy and paste code are located
in the sidebar) Please feel free to copy and paste it on your page to share
with your readers; if any of you have a button as well, please let me know so I can grab it to share also. Help me spread the love for all of us who have autistic
angels in our lives! Thank you for
helping me on this adventure to connect with others. I do this not just for myself, but for my boys in
hopes to make a brighter future ahead for them!
Keep spreading the awareness! Thanks again
Yours
Truly,
Heather Joy

ReplyDeleteThat's great! I'll keep every one posted as to when I'll do a post on how to create a blog button with a tutorial and links, sometime within the next week :)
