If you follow me on Instagram then you will already know where I was on Saturday (apologies for the mass of photos in one go, I blame the cocktails) For those of you that don’t know I was at the South West Blog Social at the Oddfellows in Exeter and it was a really great day!
South West Blog Social
The event was organised by Jodie Dewberry from à la Jode and Albertine Brandon from Dippy Writes.
As with all of the events that I go to I was really nervous to start with but after a cocktail or two I soon relaxed into it.
There were a variety of speakers at the event including Maria McCarthy who spoke about print media & getting published. (I picked up lots of great tips from her).
Emma Coles spoke about monetizing your blog…
Ruth Douglas gave us some great advice about finding your blogging voice.
It was great to catch up with Victoria from Vevivos with whom I enjoyed a lovely pulled pork pizza and a cocktail with.
There was also a Makeover Station where you could get your nails, make up or hair done.
I met some lovely local bloggers and discovered lots of new blogs to read.
As an added bonus I came home with a goody bag packed full of lovely bits and I was also lucky enough to win a gorgeous kimono from Claudia Meller in the raffle.
So now not only am I looking forward to going back again next year but it’s really got me excited about going to Brit Mums Live next week.
