I have a little something going up on Copyblogger today that has to do with handcuffs and watery death chambers, not usual writing fodder for me, but I think it’s something you’ll enjoy.
To those of you who blog, I’m sure Copyblogger needs no introduction. But if you’re new there and want to poke around, a few of my favorites there have to do with Mr. Rogers, Oscar the Grouch, and Mothers.
And to Copyblogger readers just stopping by, welcome, I hope you’ll feel right at home. Take a moment to stop by my inspiration boards on gifts and packaging, which are teaming with ideas from talented bloggers and shopkeepers. Or visit the archives to read about mailing a Frisbee with no envelope, making hot chocolate on a stick, or doodling on cake or in hand soap.

very interesting. I tried to find the post about printing on post-it notes, but I couldn’t. I love your blog. You do a great job and have lots of ideas.

Well, I’m new to blogging (1 1/2 months now) so I have no idea what Copyblogger is. Going to go right over there and check it out. I mean, handcuffs and watery death chambers – I’m intrigued. I’ve already gone through your entire “pretty packaging” tab because I obsess over that sort of thing. Yours is to die for.
Nice job with your copyblogger post, Amber. All great blogging tips and you do all of them very well!
I had never been to copyblogger – it has some amazing content! I enjoyed your article, and the links you referred to. I feel like I’ve learned some great things. Thanks!
well-written. i really liked what you said about not being afraid to build – i’ve done this with my son’s birth story (writing it in chunks, instead of publishing it all at once) and the feedback i’ve gotten has been wonderful.
i think sometimes we don’t want to begin the anticipation for something because we fear not being able to follow through.
Loved your Houdini post on Copyblogger. I look forward to reading your blog. It looks fun and right up my alley!

Although Copyblogger always has great posts, yours today was really excellent. Loved the Houdini analogy and you gave some really useful – and thought-provoking – tips.
Nice to meet you!

I came by your blog via Copyblogger. I hardly ever see a crafty person contribute there. They are normally freelance writers or marketers. I love your blog and have subscribed to it. Thanks for a great article. :)
Loved the comments left for you after your article. :)
