When my good friend Alex Blackwell, host of Blog Basics For Everyone (as part of his Blogging Workshop series at the Next 45 Years) reached out for help for someone to host on his behalf while he went on vacation, I said yes. While blogging topics are not typically what I focus on in my blog, I figured it would be a great opportunity for me to learn a few things from some savvy blogger like the ones included in this edition. Enjoy!
