Sunday Morning Coffee // No. 13

Happy Sunday….afternoon? I usually set up our little coffee dates earlier in the morning, but I’ve been a little off for the past days.

This week was pretty uneventful, mainly just preparing to jump back into a busy semester. My calendar is filling up already with exciting things. Starting a new semester with so many responsibilities can be stressful, but it’s honestly my favorite kind of stress. If that makes sense?

I’m most excited to have spent some time writing and working on behind-the-scenes blogging projects. I mentioned a few in my post on my 2014 blogging goals, but seeing them start to form and become something is surreal. In just the week that I announced the new sponsorship program here on the blog, I’m almost completely booked up.

I’m sure I’ll be sharing more about these exciting new projects in the monthly newsletter, so be sure that you’re subscribed!

Now, onto some links that I loved this week…

+ The Lovely Angel of Studio 404 always shares awesome posts on blogging, freelancing and design. This week, she posted about how to really engage as a blogger. Creating community on a blog makes such a huge difference, so I loved the points she made in this post.

+ Allie of Between Dreams really jump started the week with this super empowering and motivational post. We’ve all been in a place where giving up seems like our only option. Allie reminds us to keep going, because it’s worth it.

+ Tan talks all about surviving modern day cynicism, something that resonates too well with me. I loved the story she shared in her post, and I’m sure many will relate.

+ Holly’s post on website upkeep reminded me how important it is to keep the clutter out of your blog. It’s so easy to become a blog hoarder.

+ Jenn of Hello Brio is just awesome in every sense of the word, and to top it off she has more talent than I even have time to envy!! She recently shared her first hand lettering project on her blog. We’re both huge fans of typography, and I love Jenn’s first project!

That’s all from me, how was your week? What links were you loving?
