Sta.sh
So, I decided I would finish 2011 speaking at 6 WordCamps (WordPress conferences) and 1 blogging conference. I uploaded my presentations to Slideshare ( username blondishnet ). I expect to see some of my presentations that were recorded on video to be published on WordPress.TV, but they have a really long queue of videos to catch up on.
I was really happy that I was able to meet new people and also some of my regular readers face-to-face. It was hard to stay humble, but I was not there for ego-stroking. I was there to help and made that my goal the entire time.
My topics I covered at each WordCamp this year:
WordCamp Columbus 2011 - Introduction to WordPress Plugin Development
WordCamp Chicago 2011- Setting Up Your WordPress Site Like A Pro
WordCamp St. Louis 2011- Introduction to WordPress Theme Development
WordCamp Louisville 2011- Introduction to WordPress Theme Development: Tweaking Your Theme
WordCamp Philadelphia 2011- WordPress Design and Development with the Client in Mind
WordCamp Detroit 2011- WordPress Tools and Tips for Any Niche

I do have a few proposals and invitations for some 2012 WordCamps and a couple social media and blogging conferences. I look forward to tackling those and hoping that my topics cover what people are wanting to know. I remember when I began... there were not that many people to look up to and the catty gals on MySpace who only wanted attention and comments were a real turn off despite their sexy pictures.
Anyhow, I have been working really hard this year and tried to keep up to date with my DA account. It has not been easy as my brand has grown a lot this year and right now I am going through a huge marketing campaign and trying to get use to bigger traffic numbers. I do not want to ignore my visitors, but I definitely will be covering more graphic and HTML tutorials soon. I still have well over 1000 free graphics on my site, and soon that will include all the WordPress themes I have been working on.
Thank you to everyone who has supported me, my work, and those who have helped donate to keep InuYasha-Fanfiction.com alive. I am still looking for a few good mods that are not into starting trouble and not going for a power trip. I've dealt enough with that and I say- leave that for All My Children....lol.
