A big thanks to everyone who participated in  this anniversary edition of the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival! We  have a fairly small Carnival this month, but over the past year, 50 bloggers have taken part in this monthly  feature.

At this time I would like to give special recognition to  Angela Esnouf, who has contributed to a total of 11<strong> </strong>Blog Carnivals to date. Angela  has been named our first "Professional Organizers Blog Carnival Star Blogger"  and has been provided with a special badge which she can place on her  blog.

You too can be a Professional Organizers Blog Carnival Star  Blogger! Once you have been featured in 10 Blog Carnivals, you will also receive  a badge to display on your blog. You can get started today by <a title="http://organizedassistant.com/blog/blog-carnival/" href="../../../../../blog/blog-carnival/">submitting a post for  July</a>, when our theme will be <strong>Book  Reviews</strong>. Whether it's  a book you've read recently or an all-time favorite, we want to know about it!  You have until Monday, July 12 to make your submission, so you've got plenty of  time to read a book and post a review on your blog, or you are welcome to submit  a link to one of your older posts. If you need some inspiration, check out the  titles in the <a title="http://organizedassistant.com/links/bookstore/" href="../../../../../links/bookstore/">Bookstore for Professional  Organizers</a>.
