    I’m following both feeds in my reader. I’d like to go to Type A mom because I like the KidCon idea. It would be great for the boys

    I am receiving both feeds via reader. I would love to attend Type A Mom because I need help finding my voice and feel that this conference would be very beneficial to me.

    I follow both feeds. I like the idea of the speakers dinners and blogger/company “speed dating” these are both great ways to network with VIPs at TypeAMomCon

    I met several of the illustrious speakers at BlogHer last weekend and want to learn more about their perspective on blogging and business… I think there was definitely unfinished discussion at GeekMommy’s session.

    I am a subscriber via google reader to both blogs and what I love most about the conference is the idea of the dinner speakers as well as the company speed dating. I am not someone who will reach out on my own so having this set up would take a lot of the awkward away for me.

    I am a subscriber to both feeds in my reader. I am planning to attend Type A already. (In fact, I already have bought my ticket, but perhaps could be reimbursed if I win?) I am particularly excited about the speaker dinners around Asheville. That will give me the unique opportunity to connect with a speaker in a way I might not otherwise be able to do.

    I subscribed to both feeds in Google. I’ve already got my ticket to TypeAMomCon, soooo it would be lovely to be reimbursed if I won! If not? I’d probably find a way to bless another mom with it. There’s so many of us who can’t afford these conferences right now..

    I’ve been an email subscriber of Type A Mom, and now I’m signed up for yours! I’ve been at the Conference website 100 times already, I’m sure – I desperately want to go! I think the line-up of speakers is amazing, and I just want to bask in their knowledge. I am also super excited about the location, and I love that it’s a smaller venue.

    I want to go to the conference so that I can learn how to improve my blog and my writing from the great speakers that are going to be there.
    I subscribed to you both via email.

    I would love to win a sponsorship because I would enjoy being around other bloggers and networking. In addition, my husband would enjoy playing golf and my children would enjoy themselves while I was at the conference.
    Thanks!

    I subscribe to TypeAMom and your site (and have for awhile I might add!). I am hoping to go to the conference so I can learn how to take my blog to the next level. I’ve been blogging about 2 years or more but more recently (on a daily basis) since January and have so much more to learn!

  22. JenniferG

    I am a subscriber to both Type A Mom and your site. Primarily I would like to go to the conference because I am a fairly new blogger struggling with finding my niche and my voice (not to mention finding my mojo again). I also feel like I have a ton to learn about the blogosphere!
    I tweeted this as well (@mammamania).
    Thanks so much for the opportunity!

    Already subscribing to both of you ladies in my reader and email!
    This conference registration would give me the opportunity for me AND my son to expand our horizons and take our writing to the next level! We are both writers in need of direction for displaying our work on the web.

    I’m following everything in a reader! You’ve all definitey been added to my daily reads!
    Why I hope to win? Why, Mishi (SecretAgentMama) is going to be there!!! We had plans to meet in Buffalo this weekend, but they fell through in a flaming delight 😀
    In all seriousness, I have so many reasons I want to go…the networking, the photo-walk…meeting some amazing wmen I’ve been wanting to meet for a long time!! And that’s just for starters!

    I added both to my reader… 🙂
    I would love love love to win this amazingly generous prize because as a new blogger, I realize the importance and value of the Type A Mom conference for the connections I will make and lessons I will learn. I would be beyond excited to attend, especially since, with 3 children (one is 9 months old) I would be able to take them with me and let them enjoy activities as well. This is a wonderful opportunity for all of us! Oops, I guess that’s more than one reason. The benefits are endless! 😉

    Plain and simple I missed blogher and I really wanted to go to learn about how to make my blog better, and to meet all these great women that I have been meeting online and thru MOMTV.com . I think in looking at the speakers I could learn alot about myself. Afterall the reason I started my blog was to learn about myself, and have something that my children could look back on more than just their scrapbooks.

    I’m subscribed to both sites (I was already subscribed to yours). 🙂
    I am dying to go because I feel like I’m at a crossroads with my blog. I think this conference will give me a jump-start to my blogging-mojo and help me make some decisions about the direction I’m going with my blog.
    That and I really need to hear Robin, Tara and Melanie speak about balance. I’m totally unbalanced…in so many ways.

    I’m subscribed to both, and I think TypeAMom will be a great first conference for me. I looked at the speakers and am excited to see bloggers who started out just like me, working around their kids, who’ve created successful jobs for themselves at home.

    I would love to attend to not only meet all the powerful bloggers I have looked up to as I started my journey of blogging, but also to help give my blog a little bit more direction. Since I just put 4 tires on my mom-mobile it looks like this would be the only way I can go!

    I’d love to go for the blogging with an authentic voice and passion part. I think that would be interesting. How can you be as authentic as possible with so many bloggers out there? Every time you think you have an original idea someone else has thought of the same thing! I’d also like to go for the advertising on blogs….to see how different people feel about that.

    1 and 2 Added both feeds to my google reader
    3 There’s a lot of reasons I’d love to attend, especially after missing Blogher but based on the TypeAMom information, I’d really love to hear Amy from Resourceful Mommy, one of the speakers. I’d really love to hear all about how she manages her life as a mommy and has the time for her blog plus all of the twitter parties she oversees.

    Breakout 3: Blogger Outreach and Online Public Relations (featuring Katja Presnal, Nancy Martira, Stephanie Smirnov and David Griner)I’ve worked with Nancy on a few campaigns and I believe I would benefit greatly from this breakout session. I recently opened a new ning called The Product Review Place and I believe I could share a lot of information there with women who (like myself) haven’t been able to make it to any conferences.

    I’m a subscriber! I’m also a believer of the importance of blogging in our fragmented world – I love the way it makes me feel like I’m part of a community, even though I’m pretty isolated out here in Indiana. I’d like to go to learn how to take my little blog and make it big, by picking brains during networking, soaking up everything I can learn during sessions, and meeting all the wonderful women behind these voices. The speaker dinners sound like a dream come true!

    Subscribed to both via Google RSS. I would LOVE to win this because it is only about a day’s drive and I not only want to go to learn more about blogging and building relationships, but I would love to meet others that share the same ambitions. To be able to bring my daughter would be amazing, especially since I just reconnected with my aunt in NC who I have not seen since I was about 6 years old. I would LOVE to be able to see her again!
    Thanks so much for the chance!
