Connecting with people who share our viewpoints, can support us through challenges and cheer us on — well, that’s the reason we all blog, right? And that’s certainly what events like Fitbloggin’ are all about.

But there’s a a fine line between community and clique, and recently it seems more and more bloggers are finding themselves left out and feeling vulnerable. Take a look at some of the comments made during a recent Fitblog Chat on Twitter: Read the rest of It’s FitBloggin’ not CliqBloggin’!»»

FitBloggin’ is proud to welcome it’s first guest poster and we are more then ecstatic that it’s Pastaqueen, AKA Jennette Fulda.

FitBloggin’10 is over. FitBloggin’11 is in the EXTREMELY early stages of planning. But what do we do in between? How can we keep in touch with each other? Share knowledge? Learn? Grow? Connect?

By keeping the FitBloggin’ community alive! That’s how.

First, if you weren’t aware kwidrick is starting a regular #FitBlog chat to continue the energy and lively discussion on twitter.  The first is scheduled Tuesday, April 6th, at 9pm ET

Second, the FitBloggin’ blog will soon be more then just conference news. Fitbloggin is all about sharing knowledge “for those that blog or want to blog about fitness, wellness, good food and a healthy lifestyle no matter where they are in the journey.” Why do we have to wait until we meet face to face to do that?

We don’t!

FitBloggin’ is now accepting guest posts on all Fit Blogging topics! From monetizing to marathon training tips. Book publishing to body image advice. Workout ideas to WordPress hints. We are going to cover it all for the FitBlogger. If you’d like to submit a guest post simply shoot us an email at posts@fitbloggin.com
