I’ve got several “irons in the fire” right now, including keeping up with everyone at Personal Development Partners, blogging almost daily over at Fitness Destinations, and, of course, growing my Fitness Coaching business.

I am even considering going back into one-on-one personal training for a year or so until I move out to the coast of Florida in 2009. There is just no end to the fun in my life!

…and THAT is why we will miss your carnival, Aaron. You always take the time to outline what you are doing and why.

Thanks again for everything, including your kind comments.

We look forward to hearing about whatever you may be focusing on instead of this. Whether it is fitness- or personal development-related, or anything else, for that matter, no doubt it will bring immense value to all of us who are ready!

Cheers,

Shauna

At a basic level, yes, a blog carnival is just a collection of links. However, a good host will also take the time to actually read through the links to make sure that they offer true value.

Many blog hosts just copy and paste the link list from the form that Blog Carnival puts out, and to me, that is just a list of links. Hosting a carnival – in my opinion – should also include at least reading the posts to ensure value, if not actually writing up a quick note about each post, when time allows.

Looks interesting, I may try one

You’ve been a bright star in every comment, blog post, or conversation that you have written or taken part in. Always a pleasure to read what you have to say!

Thanks, Aaron, for all you do.

Best regards as always,

Shauna

Carnival hosting is a lot of fun, and I highly recommend it for anyone who has the time to dedicate to putting together quality collections of content from around the blogosphere.

If you want to do an edition hosted elsewhere drop a line my way. I’d be willing to give it a shot.

Thanks for your contribution while the carnival was here. The “doing it differently” posts have really helped people to think outside of the box!

Cheers, Marc
