We're Having a Linky Party: Post the link to one of your blog posts

Jill Williamson is a chocolate loving, daydreaming, creator of kingdoms. She writes weird books for teens in lots of weird genres like, fantasy (Blood of Kings trilogy), science fiction (Replication), and dystopian (The Safe Lands trilogy). Find Jill on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or on her author website.

As my last act of love for Love an Author month, I'd like us to try having a Linky Party.

What is a Linky Party, you ask? I will tell you.

A Linky Party is when the author of a blog hosts an invite on that blog for the readers to link up blog posts. These are usually for posts on the same topic. I thought it would be fun for us to link a post from our own blogs. Whichever post you like. One that you are particularly proud of. Or one that you think might be helpful to the Go Teen Writers community.


Since this is a blog for teens, I set the system so that I will approve all links, just to make sure no one spams us. So you won't see your link appear until I approve it. You will have until 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, March 1, to enter your link. Then come back and click on each other's links and read each other's posts.

Have fun!

    Sounds like fun! I don't have a blog [yet], but I can't wait to check out everyone's links!

    I submitted a link to some of my story snippets. :) This sounds like a really fun idea!

    Wow, this is a great idea! I was traveling during most of February so I haven't been keeping up with GTW, but I look forward to catching up on what you've been doing around here! :)

      Hope you had fun traveling! These aren't GTW blog links, though, Aidyl. These are links that the GTW's readers will enter. Things from each of your own blogs that you want to share with the group.

      Ah, thank you for explaining. :)
      I've visited about 30 of the blogs on the link-up so far and have really been enjoying it! Thank you for doing this. :)

    Oh, Jill, I love this linky idea and what you have been doing for Love an Author month! It's really important to be generous with social media, and I've been taking this to heart by following some authors I love and using my platform to help them out. Thank-you for all you do here!

      My choice was pretty much a random test, though... Ha ha.

    I accidentally entered twice, because I didn't realize at first that we were suppose to link up a certain blogpost and not just our blog. So, you can ignore my first entry :)

    I wanted to enter in a review, but I decided that the list of book recommendations would be better for the community!

      Yes! WE LOVE YOU, MRS. WILLIAMSON!! Your posts are always informative, and I love it when you cover some of the business side of writing, like advances and taxes. Thank you for helping make GTW possible!!

    Super cool idea! Thank you for putting this up! I posted one I did about a year ago on query letters. Even though it's old, it's one of my favorites ones :)
