Day 2 in review
We grew a little more slowly on Day 2 than Day 1, adding eight blogs to the original 42. And that’s okay. I spent the day figuring out how to make this project work the yeah write way. How can we combine the writing every day aspect of NaBlo with the comment and read every blog on the grid aspect of yeah write? Here’s how:
Meet your rowmies
Shannon from truthfully.ca gifted us with that term for the bloggers sharing your row on the grid. Each day, please make sure you visit and comment at least on your rowmies’ blogs. Even if the grid grows with additional submissions until it closes on Nov. 5, your row will never change.
Visit your columnites
Ha. I don’t know if columnites flows as easy as the word rowmies, but let’s roll with it.
If you have extra time throughout each week, include the blogs in your grid column for visits and comments. Read upstream and down, and watch out for new blogs being added to your column until Nov. 5.
Here are your groups for the rest of the month

First time here? Welcome!
If you need an orientation, please feel to visit this brief overview of yeah write and this post introducing NaBloPoMo to the yeah write crew. Then add your blog to the grid below following the instructions of the Inlinkz app and we’ll come love on your blog. Thanks for joining us.
If this is your 1,000th time here, please be kind to the virgins and make them feel at home. You know how we do it.
One prize given away each week!
Grid sponsor W.W. Norton & Company, Inc. has generously provided four copies of the book Microstyle: The Art of Writing Little. Each week, I’ll check all the blogs on the grid for those who have written a post every day during that week. Then I’ll randomly select among those blogs the winner of Microstyle. For Week 1, the drawing will be held on November 8 after I’ve identified the blogs with posts from Nov 1-Nov 7. Good luck!
Day Three out of thirty. Add your blog below.

i hate to be a royal PITA but is there any way i could get the blog urls to my rowmies and my columnites? i can’t see anything linked. 🙁 🙁 🙁 and i just don’t have time to do so from home where i can get off IE. 🙁 if it’s too much trouble, i ABSOLUTELY understand and will have to find time to get the links from home into my reader (or something).
Did you add some amazing feature that shows when we have visited a blog? And there is some kind of drop-down menu that I’m afraid to try, too. That is amazing!
We have been selected to try the beta version of the new Inlinkz widget! I do like the “visited this link” feature. Try the drop down menu: you can share on Facebook or Twitter right from the grid!
I’ve been trying to comment on fellow rowmie Cecily Walker’s blog the past two days but can’t. I’m not seeing any type of comment form. Was hoping that she might see this comment here…..or that another YeahWriter could help guide me in this problem. Thanks!
Are you on Safari? Try visiting her blog using Chrome or Firefox. Thanks!
I was actually on Internet Explorer. I’ll try downloading Chrome in the next day or two and see if that helps
I’m a virgin! I’m looking forward to participating, and meeting/reading fellow bloggers 😀 I’m going to take the rest of the day to peruse ‘Yeah Write’ and learn more.
Hello, Everyone! Thanks for being so welcoming ♥
I’ve been to visit all of my Rowmies and Columnites and now since I have an extra hour today I’m going to visit some of my favorites. Thank you Erica for breaking the list down to more manageable bites.
Agreed!
I love that we have the chance to get to know some bloggers and some others even better! This is way way more manageable! Great suggestion!
I clicked on Outlaw Mama’s grid link and it gave me an error message. Don’t know if it’s just on my end, but wanted to let you know. Thanks for organizing this – what a great way to keep each other going!
It worked for me. Try again in a few or try another browser. I’m glad this is working well for you!
oh this is awesome, you’re awesome (Erica), that photo is awesome, WE’RE AWESOME!
Thank you for your enthusiasm!
Awesome rowmies and super columnites!
I’m sorry. But this is so cute. (I mean that as the utmost compliment.)
What’s weird: you know I normally run as far away from cute as possible, but it was so easy to explain in these terms, I couldn’t resist.
So simple, yet genius! And I love my rowmies, so I’m quite pleased 🙂 Great plan!
My nook is misbehaving so I am having issues commenting on blogs but I read all my row-mayes’ blogs. And I have comments in my head. In short, you rock.
All my rowmies rock!
