Today is a quickie for now. I don't think that I mentioned this before, but Andrew's grandmother passed away on Thursday, and he left early Saturday morning to visit family in CT. He is coming back this evening. I would have gone with him, but spending that short of a time visiting my family would have been worse than not seeing them at all...
I had all these plans on what I was going to get done while he was gone, and I haven't finished most of it, so I am making this short so that I can work on getting the rest done today. If I have time later, I will try to come back and post again.
I welcomed Focus Organic's new writer, Derek, on Twitter, but I never did a proper welcome for him here. So, welcome Derek! You can read more about Derek and learn where else he writes on our about page. Derek's first post at Focus Organic can be seen here: Fair Trade for Social Justice and a Sustainable Future.
I'm putting a call out there for more guest posters and/or recurring co-authors. Guest posters will have their submissions put up by me, which can include a short author byline. Co-authors will have their own logins on Focus Organic and can put together their posts on their own, posting as often as they like. Co-authors will also have a section on the about page similar to mine and Derek's, and the bottom of every one of your posts will include a small section with your link (look at the bottom of any post here... see that light blue box? That's the place!). Feel free to contact me if you are interested.
That's all for now. Somebody give me the motivation to finish cleaning my condo today!

Hi Stefanie,
I really like your blog and I too am into green and sustainable living. I am going to contact you about the possibility of being a guest contributor. Thanks!

Stefanie,
This is a good idea, as long as the quality of the content doesn't diminish. I'm sure you will make sure of that!
You are one of three Organic blogs I read now and I will be sure to contact them leaving them a little snippet that you are looking for guest writers.

Opening for guest posts is surely a good idea, it will be an additional information for us. Anyways, love your blog!
