<span style="font-size: large;"><b>About Charlotte Blackwell</b></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="artistCentralBio_biographyBody" id="artistCentralBio_officialFullBioContent">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">Charlotte
Blackwell</span></b> author of <span style="font-size: large;"><b>The Embrace Series</b></span> is delighted to have the
opportunity to follow her dreams of writing. She would love to share a
little bit about her self with you now.<br />
Charlotte was born in October
of 1976. On the day of her birth Charlotte's father was racing stock
cars, while her two older sister's watched from the stands as their
father crashed through the wall of the race track. Within moments the
stock car he was driving came back through the wall, and he won the
race. He took his two daughters and hurried to the hospital for the
birth of his third daughter, Charlotte.<br />
Raised in Edmonton, Alberta,
Charlotte enjoyed swimming, singing (although not so great at it) and
writing her thoughts down. She never shared her passion for writing
with anyone, and it got put on the back burner. As Charlotte grew, she
found a new passion in medicine, she became the athletic trainer for her
high school men's basketball team. Helping the team through their
injuries are some of her best memories as a teen.<br />
After the birth
of he first daughter Jorden, Charlotte moved to Calgary, Alberta where
she returned to college for her practical nursing certificate. During
her schooling Charlotte became pregnant her second daughter, Shawnee.
Due to complications, Charlotte was put on bed rest and have to step
away from school. Shawnee was born and not breathing, the staff worked
to resuscitated the small baby, and succeeded. Charlotte returned to
school only six weeks later and completed her course. She began working
with children, and eventually in the special care nursery for ill and
pre-term babies.<br />
Charlotte and James finally decided to get
married in 2005 and completed their family with a son, Lucas in 2006 who
was born six weeks early and had three surgeries by one month old.
Today all three of their children are happy, healthy and very active,
Jorden is a very talented dancer and singer who performs with The Young
Canadians and performs at the Grandstand show nightly during the Calgary
Stampede, she is also home schooled. Shawnee is an amazing artist and
hopes to become a fashion designer one day .Both girls are honor
students on top of their activities. Lucas is still young, but has
enjoyed kick boxing and wants to try his hand at hockey and baseball.<br />
Charlotte
and James live with their children, two huskies and two cats just
outside of Calgary, Alberta. They cherish every moment they have
together as a family and hope to soon travel the world. James and the
children have been great supporters of Charlotte from day one and
continue to cheer her on along the way. Shawnee has also tried her hand
at writing and recently completed an illustrated children's book. I
guess writing is in her blood.<br />
Charlotte has a strong passion for
young adult novel especially those in the paranormal or dark fantasy
genre's. As she continues to work on The Embrace Series, Charlotte is
also working on a mainstream romance and a science fiction novel
involving alternate universes. She will continue to up date this site
with her work and what is next, and she thanks you all for your support
and encouragement.</div>

So you have decided to put a blog together and it looks FABULOUS! Now what do you do with it?<br />
<br />
There are some people who create blogs for reviews, fun, diaries and so on. The reasons are endless. As a matter of fact, there are just as many reasons as there are blogs. Now that you have a blog how do you get followers?<br />
<br />
One of the best ways to get followers is offering something to the reader for free. Those could be interviews from writers, how to blogs about building a fort, and the list goes on. For writers, one of the best things to offer are writing tips. Remember this is not about you but the reader. It's like a novel in that aspect.<br />
<br />
The other way to get followers is to network with other bloggers. Get on Facebook and join Network Blogs. Also check out other blogging index centers like Frog Blog and The Blog Farm. In networking with other bloggers, you can do link exchanges. The list goes on. The more blogs you are networked with, the more followers you will have.<br />
<br />
There are also tools such as Twitter, FB, and many other social networking places you can join. One of the newest and most popular places is called Pintrest. You should check it out and meet up with people to find similar interests.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">HAVE FUN WITH YOUR BLOG </span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
One of the best ways to ensure that your blog grows is by posting EVERYDAY. That is one of the reasons I developed this blog. There are new bloggers, seasoned bloggers and others in between who need content. You can find that here. I try to make sure that all the people who participate are given credit for all their hard work. I believe bloggers don't get enough credit for all the work they put into their blogs. <br />
<br />
The whole idea of blogging is to give yourself a voice. So use it wisely. Being nice is always best and sharing with others who have the same interests is always fun. A way to do that is to make sure the posts you publish are not always about you. Give back to the readers who stop off at your blog on a daily basis. After all, they are your readers. Cherish them. <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Elizabeth divides her time between her beach cottage and her scrupulously clean house in the hills of West Virginia. <br />
Ooops. That's fantasy Elizabeth. The real Elizabeth spends her days
schlepping after her four boys (five if you count their father) and the
assortment of pets they swore they'd take care of. <br />
<br />
She does live in West Virginia; the house is clean when the
mother-in-law visits; and she does have serious dreams of living at the
beach. <br />
Elizabeth is a Marshall University graduate with a degree in counseling.
This has proven very beneficial when dealing with the make-believe
friends she hangs out with all day (she calls this 'writing'). </span></span></div>
