The super cool button badges are ready and available in the hidden widget at the top of the page. The ones at the top are for the challenge grid, the ones at the bottom are for the hangout grid.

switching out the badges

Each super cool button badge comes coded with the backlink required by the Inlinkz app to add your post to either grid. Are you planning on linking to the challenge grid, but you want to use the hangout badge?

Grab the hangout badge you want, then scan the code for

xx-open-hangout

and change to

xx-open-challenge

Same goes for if you’re gonna be on the hangout grid, but you want one of the challenge buttons

Grab the challenge badge you want, then scan the code for

sending out personal invitations to yeah write

Know anyone who would be perfect for either grid who’s been too shy or too ornery to join us? Why not send them a quick email explaining what you love about yeah write and how they would love it too if they’d only give us a chance, but we’re not begging or anything because we’re already awesome, but, dude, come on, you have nothing to lose and everything as a blogging writer to gain, right?

Some of our lurkers will always be lurkers, and that’s great because lurkers are readers and we love readers here at yeah write. We have reading lurkers, voting lurkers and undecided lurkers, and the undecided lurker is where you come in. If you know they’ve been hanging around, invite them personally to try it for one week. Make sure it’s a soft sell, not a hard one. A warm invite, not a cold call. Writers, graphic illustrators, humorists, conspiracy theorists—as long as they have a good story to share and can tell it well—they will be a good fit for us.

Please let them know that, yes, everything they’ve heard about me is true, but I’m not gonna gnaw off their arms or anything. That’s for a future writing project called yeah bite.

weekly email blast

This is the link to the weekly email blast you get from me when the grids are open for submissions and when the challenge grid is open for voting. Share that with them, too. We’re growing our humble community one writer who blogs and one blogger who writes at a time, and getting the word out works better when you guys recommend it personally.
