Last Call

Remember when I went to BlogHer and got lost in Central Park and lost 10 pounds from anxiety and sweat and then had a $25 gin and tonic from the hotel mini bar which, I might add, did not even include lime and then I ate my way through the expo hall because I was recovering from gin and social awkwardness? That was so much fun that I am thinking about going to BlogHer 2011 which will take place in San Diego and if I'm gonna go then I want to see some other queer folk there. BlogHer's Call for Ideas for the 2011 conference closes this Sunday, 10/31/10. This is our opportunity to suggest queer panel topics and queer panelists and queer everything! I'm begging all of you...readers and bloggers alike...to head over here and read a brief bit about the Call for Ideas and then SUBMIT. The submission form allows you to suggest panel topics and panelists. This is a chance for you to put your queer/queer alllied little self on a panel. This is your chance to recommend your favorite bloggers to talk about a topic of your choosing. This is your chance help create a queer presence at the conference. I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, "Why Vikki? WHY?" The simple answer is VISIBILITY. The more complex answer is VISIBILITY. BlogHer is a huge conference and provides an excellent opportunity for us to build coalitions and support for our writing and issues. So, do it. Submit your ideas today, tomorrow and Sunday.
