Darren Rowse on ProBlogger.net challenged his readers today to create a post links to posts that I and others have written in seven different categories. Sounded fun and interesting, so I joined in (holy cow, this exercise made me realize that I have 350 posts on this blog, and it’s only been about 14 months!):
- Your first post: Strange Form of Self Rejection. Not sure if this is the first post I ever wrote, but it is the oldest one on my site! I had forgotten about this one. it’s not bad, but I’d like to think I have come a long way since.
- A post you enjoyed writing the most What You Can Learn from Woody, Boo, and Mr. Incredible. I was (and still am) so into the story of Pixar, that this post, though really long, flowed out of me (At the time I had DVR’ed a documentary about Pixar. I actually watched it twice in two days…). I loved writing about all the lessons we could learn from Pixar’s example.
- A post which had a great discussion 5 Conference Speakers That Can Kill a Conference. I don’t know about great discussion, but this one got some great comments (and was one of the most fun ones for me to write).
- A post on someone else’s blog that you wish you’d written 12 Ways to Defy Gravity Without Defaming Your Good Name. I’m a huge fan of the musical Wicked, and Defying Gravity is one of my favorite songs ever. I think it’s very inspirational and have long thought about writing a blog post about it. Scott beat me to the punch by just, you know, writing it instead of thinking about it
- Your most helpful post How to Quickly Put Together a Great Speech. I was real happy with this one. If you read this and can’t put together a speech quickly, you only have yourself to blame.
- A post with a title that you are proud of Hmm, it’s a toss up between Are You an Encouraging Inspiration or a Discouraging Dumbass? and Why Stupid People Succeed. They cut right to the chase.
- A post that you wish more people had read Tough one. I’ll go with Motivational Listening. I thought there were some very good things in that article, and I wish it had reached more people.
There you go! Hope you enjoyed that stroll down memory lane as much as I did!
