One of the bloggers who has taken up my ‘post a day‘ challenge is ArtLinks director Cathy Fitzgerald. Cathy was a recent guest on a podcast show I’m involved with through Blog Talk Radio in the lead up to the second PodCamp to be held in Kilkenny this coming September (I’m one of the organisers).

ArtLinks are slowly but surely opening more doors for artists living in the South East of Ireland to showcase their works online and through a number of professional development courses (see my previous post about Blogging The Arts here) are helping artists to get online, increasing the possibilities of artists sourcing new work and new audiences.

As part of her own ‘post a day’, Cathy outlines her experiences in connecting with new audiences from a beginner blogger’s point of view. Once you start, you can’t seem to stop! Cathy’s post is drawn on experiences gained from attending events like PodCamp and connecting with fellow bloggers and arts practitioners.

As an organiser and contributer to PodCamp and BarCamp-style events, I cannot underline enough how beneficial these free unconference days can be. For a full list of PodCamp events taking place globally see PodCamp.org.
