Have you ever considered writing a book? Do you know what steps are involved? You’ll find out today from my guest Linda Samuels, the author of The Other Side of Organized, who is here to walk us through the process and introduce us to the people who were involved in helping her fulfil her dream.
As I go through the process of planning my blogging schedule for 2011, I can’t stop thinking that “Your Organizing Business” would be no more than random thoughts passing through my mind if it weren’t for my faithful readers. This final post of 2010 is therefore dedicated to all of you.
I love exploring different paper planners, so when I saw Deanna Koller demonstrating her new WeekDate calendar to her colleagues from Southwestern Ontario on the train ride to the POC Conference last month, I invited her to write a review for Your Organizing Business. Luckily for all of us, she said Yes! Read on to learn about this unique product.
Last week, we heard about NAPO 2010 through the Eyes of a Seasoned Conference-Goer. After asking Julie Bestry to cover the conference for my blog, I thought it would also be interesting to hear from someone who has never been before. I posted a request on LinkedIn, and Randi Hutton rose to the challenge.
After losing an argument with myself about whether or not I would attend this year’s NAPO Conference, I needed to recruit a guest blogger to share the highlights with my readers, and the first person I thought of was Julie Bestry, who is a great writer and a constant source of support and inspiration to me. I think you’ll agree that reading Julie’s post is the next best thing to being there.
Teleclasses, webinars, and live workshops take place throughout the year, but nothing can compare with a professional organizers conference. Spending entire days hearing expert speakers in the company of like-minded professionals is something you must experience, if at all possible, so grab your planner and decide which conference(s) you’ll attend this year!
I don’t think I’m the only person this week who is looking back at the year 2009 and wondering how it has passed so quickly. On the other hand, so much has happened that I didn’t foresee a year ago, including the creation of this blog and its rapid popularity. It seems only fitting that I close off the year by thanking the many people who have contributed to its success.
Over the last couple of months, we’ve heard about professional organizer conferences in Africa, Australia, Los Angeles and Washington DC, and today we wrap up this year’s conference tour with the Professional Organizers in Canada Conference held in Calgary last month. It’s only fitting that our guest blogger is Jacki Hollywood Brown, whom I first met at a POC Conference a few years ago.
Through our wonderful guest bloggers, we’ve had the pleasure of vicariously attending several major professional organizer conferences this year. We don’t hear quite so much about the smaller events, so I was quite pleased when Liz Jenkins of a fresh space agreed to tell us about the 11th Annual NAPO-WDC Mid-Atlantic Regional Conference for Professional Organizers held recently.
There have been quite a few major events for professional organizers this fall, and since many of you can only spare the time and funds to attend one (or maybe not even that), I’ve recruited some special people to let you know what you’ve missed. We’ve already heard about the POAA and AAPO conferences, and today Janine Adams is here to tell us all about the recent NSGCD Conference.
