And Now its Time for a Shameless Plug…

October 25, 2011 By Lena

I love shameless plugs.

I can go on about myself without feeling vain, because I’ve just inserted the disclaimer that’s its a shameless plug.

I can spread the word about my awesomeness and duly credit the individuals that have bestowed the awesomeness upon me.

I can have high hopes that a too-famous-to-read-my-blog celebrity will somehow stumble on this post and insist that I appear in his/her next feature film, as a mommy blogger with a tortured past who must uncover a secret inscription tweet that was posted by a wrongfully-accused inmate on death row who is actually my long lost twin brother.

Regardless, here’s my most recent shameless plug:

Listen to Lena! has been named one of SavvyMom.ca’s 35 Mom Blogs We Love. 

“It’s all about social media these days. There’s Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and the like. But where did it all start? In the blogsphere, where real people began sharing their real stories about real life. Moms have been doing it for years. Every day on the web new mom blogs crop up—talented writers putting themselves out there and sharing their personal stories.

But if you’re just getting started on your trip through the blogosphere, it’s hard to know where to start as there are so many now. After reading and researching over 700 Canadian mom blogs, we’ve narrowed it down (it wasn’t easy).”

You can check out my savvy write-up here; but a true shameless plug warrants that I copy and paste the details:

Listen to Lena!
Why wouldn’t we want to listen to Lena? She’s funny, informative and can talk about anything from fertility to fresh fruit. Every post from Lena is like a tête-a-tête with your best friend.

A Taste:
‘I’m currently shopping for a long, black wig, because I’ve decided to go as Kim Kardashian for Halloween. Surely you see the resemblance, no? (No.)’

Find her at: listentolena.com

And that, my friends, is exactly why I love being in this space. Thanks SavvyMom.ca!

    Congrats Lena! Your blog has been on my must read list for what seems like eons now, long before I knew what a sweet girl you are IRL. Cheers! Here's hoping being on the list brings tons of new folks by to check out the place.
