#BlogTribe
Hello there!
So you're here because you for some bizarre reason you have shown interest in joining my Blog Tribe (and yes, there will be virtual cupcakes #duh, its craftycmc).
1st off, a bit about it how this came about. The original idea came from the amazing Tiffany at #BloggyBootCamp.
Although, of course I have embellished it :-) #afailingofmine
Since I am super busy, I only want people within the tribe that are SUPER committed to not only growing their blog but their twitter account as well.
Here are a few perimeters I was thinking of...
You must solemnly swear that you are up to no -- Oh, wait, wrong pledge.
The Craftycmc Blog Tribe Pledge:
I commit to growing my Twitter account by at least 250 followers/month (preferably 500, if you don't know how to do that, I can help)
I commit to write at least one blog a week (ok, maybe you get a week off if you break your arm, or space aliens land, but it better be a good excuse!).
I commit to RTing everyone's #MentionMonday once each week (we will limit the tribe to 12 so we don't exhaust our non-blog followers and you should space out your RTs so it isn't a cluster-f :-).
I commit to follow each member's blog (even unanimously if you wish).
I commit to writing at least 1 comment on each member's blog at least once per week.
I commit to shouting out or RTing at least twice each member's blog through the rest of the week (again, I would space these out).
That's all I can think of for now, but I can guarantee you I will be the worst at follow-through, so I encourage if you notice I slipped up for you just to DM me and I will get right on it! :-)
If these terms sound completely awesome to you, then leave your vow of chastity-- again, wrong one...
Leave your commitment to the #CraftycmcBlogTribe and your blog URL so we can all get started following each other back!
Rock On!
Crap, I always hate when I think of something uber important AFTER I put in a great ending!
But, in case you don't know what #MentionMonday is, here is the link the primer :-)

You Rock!
And don't forget my novel Plain Jane is out!
Now be forewarned, there is no pink and definitely no Ding Dongs.
My rebellious pen name @cristynwest went a wrote a book about mystery and mayhem. #weird
If you like Patterson or Silence of the Lambs, you can find Plain Jane at Smashwords (http://bit.ly/b60jVe).
Watch the book trailer, listen to the audio excerpt, and even read over 50 pages of Plain Janefor free. I mean come on... #itcantgetbetterthanthat

We would like to get in as well... Twitter has been hard for us to get into, and doing it with other bloggers seems somehow easier to deal with! We've had our blog for a year now and feel that we are ready to try on the blog big girl pants and tweet and comment with the rest of the grown ups ;)
