It’s not that obvious. You have to scroll down pretty far before you see it, and even then, it’s pretty tiny. There, in the sidebar, below the archives. See it? The Indie Bloggers button? In the beginning, the idea of bring together bloggers of no particular leaning — motherhood, crafts, pets, etc. — really appealed to me.

I agree that IB is fantastic. I had never heard of it until a few bloggers I read mentioned that they had had pieces published there and so I went over to check it out. I keep meaning to submit some of my own stuff over there, too, but as of yet I haven’t done it.

I’m going to have to check it out and submit something!
Thanks!
Do it! Good luck!
I heart IB; Stacy for President!
