Time for a Change
For over a year now, I have had a guest blogger each Friday: Blog Friend Feature(BFF).
I love the idea of introducing you to new bloggers. When I decided to do this, I thought hmmmm..... I want to feature a blog friend on Fridays. Featured Blog Friend.... Blog Friend Fridays... Blog Friend Feature. Oh, BFF! Yes, there we go.
But, I recently decided to make a little change.
BFF is no more.
Fridays will still be reserved for a guest.
But, there is going to be a slightly different twist.
On this blog, I share my heart with you. I pour it out. And other days, I vent and whine- but all of the posts you find here are open, honest, and real.
Many of the BFF posts have been much the same way. Not just an introduction to their blog, but posts that really show who they are.
I want more of that: so, on Fridays, it's not the Things *I* Can't Say, but Things They Can't Say.
Which is the guest poster's chance to spill it all on my blog. Now, don't worry: I don't need a full confessional here. But, I am looking for posts with your open and honest take on motherhood, marriage, work, blogging, friendship, anything really. It just needs to be you: real.
I knew just who I wanted for the very first one and I hope that you will come back and read what she has to say tomorrow.
Huge thanks to my other half, Ashley for coming up with the name of this new feature.

This will go over just as good as BFF, good move!
Absolutely, positively LOVE this idea Shell!
Very good idea! I am sure everyone will love it
Sounds like a great idea Shell!
I love this idea Shell. There are plenty of things I won't say on my own blog. I think it's great you're giving bloggers the forum to share on yours. Cool idea!
I LOVE this idea and even though I have been your BFF, I might need to use your wonderful space here to say things I CAN'T say on my own site!!
Oh I think this is an amazing idea!! There is definitely things I can't really talk about on my blog. Being able to talk about it somewhere else is a fabulous idea! Can't wait to read it!
How exciting. Can't wait! You're so innovative. See you and the new feature tomorrow!
Okay, seeing a trend with your buttons and meme's and color scheme ;)
When is the NEW look launching???
Love that you are doing this meme, your PYHO keeps me busy reading every week!
Great idea! Looking forward to it :)
Love it! Can't wait to read them!
I love this idea too. Can't wait to see who you have tomorrow. Question... could you feature me about 50 different times. There's a lot of crap I can't say. Awesome idea as always.
Great idea! I'd love to submit something soon. :)
Great idea! I hope to get to be the guest poster someday!
Awesome. Great idea. :)
I look forward to it. Can't wait to meet your guest's.
Wonderful idea, Shell!
Sounds like a great idea!
Good move!
Sounds like a great idea girl! :) Miss ya! I am hoping to get around more often reading now that the kids are back at school! :) How are the boys doing with school this year?
Change is always good and LOVE your new feature! Can't wait to read the posts!!
Sometimes change is a really good thing.
I LOVE this change. :) Nice work, Shell!
This is a GREAT idea you must harass me to do this!! I just have to find the time!!
eschelle_w@hotmail.com <-- so you can harass me lol!
EXCELLENT idea! As usual... :-)
Great way to change things up, Shell!
Cool! Looking forward to reading the new posts!
Fun! Looking forward to it!
Very excited to read tomorrow!!! And all the Friday's after. You always had great BFF's and now *this* should be interesting!
I love it! Awesome idea. :>
YAY! - cant wait to see who you feature :)
That sounds great. I love reading your pour your heart out posts and I know I'll love reading about all the things they can't say! I know that posts where people really put themselves out there and are truly honest are my favorite ones to read.
This is a fantastic idea! Love how you're building off of your regular feature.
What a great idea!! Looking forward to reading them! :)
I totally have something I could talk about here that I can't on my own blog cuz my mom reads it. Read: it's about my mom! Anyway, looking forward to your new series.
Love, love it! And the design!
fabulous! I may have to be over here one of those days.
So first I am like "Oh noooooo! Don't get rid of BFF! I love BFF" and then after I got over my pity party I grudglingly have to admit that this may be a good idea.
PS - I am not so good with change.
Good idea.
Great idea. Love it!
Sounds awesome!
Oh Shell, I love this idea!
Amazing idea as always! See you tomorrow.
Sandy
Wonderful title for it! And you've given everyone a lot of practice with Pour Your Heart Out. : )
Sounds awesome...
Ah'll Be Bahk ;-)
LOVE this idea!! Cant wait to read!
What a great idea! I can't wait!
I cannot wait to read so many more of these. I think the writing flows when we have a little anonymity. Anyway, the new name is my favorite part ;)
Love the idea and the name!!! It is going to be major awesomeness!!!
Once again, you're brilliant!
Awesome! As always.
Great idea and I'd love to contribute!
I am sad I never had my chance as a BFF. :(
Love this, Shell. I think it's a fantastic idea. Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
As always you see what we need as bloggers and give it us, allow us that kind of space and depth to do that. Love this, can't wait to read them!
Change is always good! I love the new twist!
Great plan Shell!
Love this idea! PYHO is one of my favorite things, this seems like a great addition.
So how do I submit a post to be featured? =)
Awwww. I didn't see this before, until I starting catching up on my reading. I'm sad to see BFF go, but change is good. As it is hard too.
Going to read the new TTCS post now. :)
Can't wait to read the first one! Donna
