Blogaversary week is over, and I wanted to thank everyone who stopped by with good wishes! I truly do appreciate it! Now its time for new beginnings…. it’s time that I hear from you! Captain Awesome had a great idea. He said that I should reach out to you, my readers to ask that you share some of your stories with me! I thought about it, and I think it’s a wonderful idea. I mean don’t we all have a story to tell?!
As I have mentioned in the past, I really want to make After The Alter a place where people can come together and talk about marriage. I get to share about my relationships, but I don’t get to hear about yours? Yes, it is my blog so that makes sense, but I think it would be fun to have you guys share every once in a while! I want to hear about your tips, your great traditions, the ways you make up after a fight, and great dinner party ideas! Men and women’s stories are both welcome. You don’t have to be a current blogger, but if you are I will totally link back to your blog! I mean even if you are a mommy blogger, or a Preggers blogger, I am sure your husband leaves his socks stuffed into the couch and it drives you nuts…and you just want to share! Oh wait…the black sock problem is with my husband! Anywho…I digress.
Guest Posting Guidelines
I sometimes ramble ALOT, but I like to keep my posts between 400-500 words. If you could do the same that would be great. If it takes more words to make your story great then so be it! I don’t have an amount of posts in mind, and right now I don’t have a set time frame of when I will post these. I have no idea what type of response I am going to get, so I don’t want to make promises I can’t keep. I can’t post everything that comes into my inbox, so please don’t be offended if I don’t post what you wrote. If I am posting what you sent, then I promise to give you the heads up before the day it goes up! Feel free to share anything marriage related! You can send the posts in a word document attached to [email protected]
I really hope you consider participating in this! Maybe it could some day be “Share a Story Saturday!” (ok I can work on the title) For now we’ll say…I’ll post em as I like em! Start sharing your stories! I can’t wait to start reading them!
This is such a good idea!!! I am going to write a post for you. It may take me a couple days, but be looking for it!
Thank you so much:)
Hi there! Stopping by from SITS. Hope to find time to send a fun story your way. Best!
I’d love to see it! ? Thanks for stopping by!
I’m not married myself, but I look forward to seeing the contributions!
That is such a great idea! I need to think on this one… and maybe I can come up with something for you. ?
Great idea! I’ll try to come up with something for you ?
Fun! You’re so sweet to reach out to your readers like this. Everyone does have a story to share, and if they’re like me, they love to tell it! ?
I LOVE this idea.. I’m going to work on a post for you : )
I just wrote a post about my husband and our marriage on Saturday! It was my first time writing about him. ?
Great idea!
My hubby built our home computer and we opted for shareware programs as oppossed to the Microsoft Office. Can I send my story to you in a notepad/.txt doc?
Sure! I don’t think that will be a problem:) I look forward to it!
I would very much like to participate in this! What a great idea. I will start thinking of my post now, I have plenty of good material! How long will you be accepting submissions?
I’m hoping this idea is successful, and will continue, so there is no real time frame:) Anytime is great!
omg- THE BLACK SOCK PROBLEM… I thought I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!! Thank gd someone else is with me…. LOLOL!!!!! and yes, socks in the couch ALL the time. UGH!
But we have an invisible hamper, in which he throws ALL HIS DIRTY CLOTHES… but since i cannot see this hamper that he apparently thinks is there, the clothes are PILED on the floor. Lovely!
I think you should write something about the invisible hamper! I think all my readers could appreciate that! ?
What a great idea! I’ll think on it and see if I can come up with something if you’re still needing posts ?
Yup I am still looking! I want to make it a weekly series so I need a bunch! I”m looking for anything marriage related…Anniversary stories, funny stories, little quirks your husband may have…things like that!
Here is a great story!
