Writing about career is never easy. It is for this reason that we take brainstorming sessions seriously (although we don't undergo such brain exercises anymore due to a very busy schedule). To write "effectively" for a specific set of audience is to catch the interest of these people. Which means, it won't be proper to just go for whichever topic comes to mind -- everything around this blog is supposed to be communal.
Okay, we're ranting. We can't help it -- ranting is the best way there is to start a post about announcements. Ranting sets a conversational mood and well, it's what we want. Anyway, we have lots of things to announce, so we'll end the useless rambling now and start with the important stuff. Are you ready?
You probably know this already, but we haven't formally announced our Inspiring Working Mothers contest here. So have you already nominated your mom or someone that you know that is deserving for the title? Participating is easy:
