It’s Party Time!

imageThis week marks my two year blogiversary, and I decided that the best way to celebrate would be to invite you all to my blog party!

It has been quite a while since I last hosted a blog party, and I absolutely love them, so I’d like you all to put on your best outfits, grab a drink (mine is a Mojito for anyone that’s interested) and get your blog on! For those of you that have never participated in one before, the rules are simple:

1. Choose your favourite post from your own blog. The subject of the post can be anything you like – blogging, food, parenting, life, travel, thoughts, photography… Note: This should be only one post at a time or it will get sent straight to the ‘spam’ folder and I may not be able to find you for a while. I don’t have an issue with you posting another link separately, but please don’t share more than three – spend the time visiting other bloggers instead.

2. Paste the link to your post in the comment section of this post.

3. Enjoy! Relax, pull up a chair, meet new people! Find new blogs, comment on their posts, be polite, courteous and respectful, follow, reblog and share. Let them know that you met them here! This is a really useful way of discovering new blogs, particularly if you have only just joined the blogging world – the general rule that I set myself when I participate is that I check out at least two or  three other bloggers…

You don’t have to follow me to participate, you don’t have to be an established blogger – you could have written just a single post – and feel free to invite your friends!

Want to discover six WordPress blogs without waiting for others to post their links? Check out my sponsors – they’re all fabulous bloggers and they would love to meet you – you can find their blogs in my sidebar, just click on the image for the link! 

You’re welcome to share this post on all of your social media accounts too! You can find me on Twitter and Tumblr @suzie81blog, and don’t forget to visit my Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/suzie81speaks

And remember…

    • Thank so much for sharing your post! Much appreciated – grab a chair, have a drink and get to know all the other bloggers joining in! Hope you have a brilliant time!

  1. Hi Suzie,
    Thanks for hosting. I am new to blogging and this is my first ever linkup, if that’s what the kids are calling it?! Looking forward to checking out the other posts. Here is a post I wrote a couple of weeks ago about creativity and what it means to me to be able to spend time drawing.

    Well, That’s Annoying, or A Bit of a Rant


    I’m not really happy with the layout – it didn’t look like that in draft but I’ve not fully got my head around this blogging lark yet, so hey ho.
    I hope you enjoy it!
    Happy blogiversary

      • You’re welcome 🙂 I’ll be there soon. I’m looking for a good post. Feel free to join mine later on today or tomorrow if you have the time and aren’t too partied out! Happy 2 years of blogging! I’m a rookie compared to you. I’ve been blogging since February!

  2. I’d like to throw in a second link: It’s a post that I published two weeks ago on my blog and that went viral in Belgium. It’s called ‘Where the heck is Liege’, and it’s about my trip to this city. I was surprised at how many Belgians shared it. It think it was because the city of Liege doesn’t get much affection, and is always in the shadow of other great Belgian cities like Bruges, Ghent or Antwerp. But this ‘viral’ thing was a great experience and fun.

  3. Looks like I’m late for the party. You have more people drawing sustenance from your table than people who tell you how much they “like” the ambiance. 🙂

    Thank you for the invitation, it’s a great party, where so many fascinating and intelligent people are congregating. I’m having a great time!

    As requested, I’ll leave my calling card before I go. My blog is a swirling mass of humor, rants and poetry. This is a poem I wrote for NaPoWriMo https://rantingalong.wordpress.com/2015/04/04/the-road-of-life/

    Anyone interested in humor, rants, family, dogs and cats can click on the folders to see what’s in them.

  4. Breaking out of your comfort zone. Be fearless to find your writing voice. http://wp.me/p4y9jb-lDK Hi everyone, this is a post I did this week for a blogshare I hold on Wednesdays and it apparently resonated with some. It was something I wrote in a few minutes, straight from my thoughts and heart. Those seem to be the ones that work best for me. If I think too long, they bomb. 🙂 This is not only about writing, that just happens to be part of the title and included in the article.

    Much Respect

    Thanks for the invitation, Suzie. You’re the best.

  5. Hi Suzie,

  6. Meet El Paso Comedian Sam Butler, Refried Comedy


    Hello from El Paso, Texas USA everyone! My name’s Lisa also known as L. My blog is called Life of an El Paso Woman. I blog about the people, places and things/events here in my hometown. I started my blog in February. I’ve been writing since I was about 6. I included a piece I did about a comedian who’s doing big things here and around the U.S. and abroad. I look forward to meeting lots of new friends. Come on by to my blog too!

      • Three is the magic number for sure! I have found almost a dozen that I like and never saw before… and I am STILL reading!!! My eyes are going to be so sore…. 😛

      • I would love to read all the other blog posts that I’ve missed until now, but I’m becoming so tired now, and I can’t concentrate any more. And thank you Suzie that you keep up your work, I would be exhausted 🙂 But we must do another blog party soon!

      • Poor you 🙂 I will throw in my new post on Twitter tomorrow – but I can’t stay put in front of a computer for another day. I have so much enjoyed participating, and getting to know other bloggers, thanks for hosting the party, and happy blogiversary 🙂 I hope you’ll repeat the blog party experience any time soon.

  7. So if you read more of what I write I like to blog about horror movies… in a humorous way, at least. Most recently I talked about if Kim K, Charles Manson, and Mama June can find love, then so can you! I did a mini version of The Dating Game with some classic horror movie characters!

  8. Happy blogversary to you. Thank you for this opportunity. I am a relatively new blogger only having been at it for 3 months and I appreciate the chance to mention my blog. I am choosing to share a post called 93,000 Stitches of Love which illustrates my favorite hobby, but also deals with a significant life event. https://helizabeth1952.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/93100-stitches-of-love/
    My blog is actually quite random and covers many topics.

    Now to go off and visit other blogs included in this party.

  9. What a super awesome way to celebrate! Suzie, you rock! I just couldn’t decide what post to share with everyone, so I’m sharing my most recent A-Z theme post. My theme is Random Acts of Kindness and it’s really a lot of fun and feel good! I’m just starting out with my blog again and hoping to meet new bodacious bloggers and gain some fantastic followers 🙂

  10. Hey people!
    I’m a little late – chores on a Saturday man – but I’m really looking forward to checking out a lot of blogs now. My blog is mainly about books and films with a lot of reviews (am currently making my way through the James Bond films) and a bit about my life every now and then.
    Here’s a fairly recent post I’m rather proud of talking about reading diversely: http://elenasquareeyes.com/2015/03/17/reading-diversely-a-reply-to-the-telegraphs-article/

  11. Happy Blogiversary!!! 😊🍷🎉 Thanks for hosting this great party. I enjoy reading all your post and appreciate the ones on learning how to blog. Here’s my favourite post from my blog, it’s where our story begins! ✌🗻🍃

    Where to begin?
