About Me: Your Hookers Calling Card
Back in 2007 I became ‘Mom with a Hook‘. It is now who I identify myself with online. It started out as a way to explain what I do on my blog which is a mom who crochets. Some people get it immediately others think fishing and still others think pirates. However, the minute people find out I crochet the name clicks.Later when I started writing it became my author persona as I wrote a lot about crochet.
What is your Hooker name? Your crochet persona? Some people like to name themselves after an inspirational artist, a life lesson, a child, a place – come up with your identity and claim it.
Hooking Calling Card Examples:
- Momwithahook
- CrochetAddict
- CrochetBlogger
- MadCrafter
- FearlessLeader – Crochet Liberation Front
Today’s Assignment:
For today’s assignment you’ll spend your time coming up with your ‘Hooking’ identity. Express this in your About Me page. Include a photo of your work or of yourself. (Note: to claim your Google Authorship you will need a photo of yourself)
Tip: What do you want to know about fellow crochet bloggers?
Put that into your page. When did you start crocheting? Who taught you to crochet? How long have you been in business? What is your favorite yarn? How can your audience find you online? (social sites) Do you teach? where do you teach? Do you have a favorite designer? How can you be contacted? Do you have other sites?
See you tomorrow for lesson 3
