Holly Becker of Decor8 has expanded her long-running course, Blogging Your Way, with a new 2.0 class for bloggers past the beginning stages. Holly is a supportive, open, and honest teacher, and I’m proud to be joining her along with Jeanette Lunde from Fryd + Design to teach the first session this June.
I’ll be showing how I create layouts for Making it Lovely, talking about advertising and monetizing your blog, and more. The full list of course topics covered can be found here.
Join Us!
Registration has begun and you can sign up here. I also have two spots to give away! You can enter by leaving a comment below with the class’ hashtag: #byw2.
Rules: The giveaway is open to international entrants until midnight CST, May 20. One entry per person. Two winners will be chosen at random and notified on May 21. Seats are non-transferrable, and those who have already registered and paid for BYW 2.0 are ineligible. Valid only for the June e-course. Comments must include #byw2 to be eligible.
* The winners are Sarah A. and Kate S.

May 17, 2012 at 11:07 amI registered for this class last fall and was not able to take full advantage of it due to both my parents struggling with health issues, namely heart disease and bypass surgery. My father had lost his job and Medicare benefits did not completely cover his costs. We have a tight-knit family and between all of us, we adjusted our finances to make sure his expenses were covered. It was a very trying time to manage it all. Things are good, though; he’s on the road to recovery and my mother is with a non-negligent doctor who is monitoring her closely. We made it to open enrollment and with a supplemental insurance, were able to reduce the family’s out-of-pocket costs. I’d love to take the class again, now that I’m in a better place — mentally, emotionally, and financially. The fact that you’re joining in as an instructor is SO EXCITING! Please consider me for the give-away! #byw2

May 17, 2012 at 11:46 amWe just soft launched an idea – twodopemoms – and we have soooo many questions about our layout and how to get our ideas across to the readership. We want folks to read us and like us but we also always want to remember why we blog (if that makes any sense at all….) and if we can cover our hosting fees and have a little bit for our girls’ bedroom makeovers – SWEET. #byw2.
