Sarah Cooper put up an awesome postabout how sharing her interests helps her connect with others through localism.

I thought I'd take a moment to share with all of you Localism fans how I incorporate my interests into my local posts!

The mother of two young children, I spend much of my free time running to this activity, playgroup or event. I am constantly looking for the newest kids activities or classes, family friendly hotspot or that fun, unique family event. I thought, why not make this work for me?!?!

My Localism posts have been focused on great local kids activities. I also write about local seasonal events and more recently about charitable events. I also include seasonal themes in my writing. To date, the blog with the greatest views on Localism was about where to find local Easter egg hunts!

My newest adventure in blogging is a topic that is close to my heart - supporting locally based mom-owned businesses. I recently wrote a brief profile on a local "momprenuer" who is using her business to reach out to other moms. I am currently working on a post that features local mom-owned businesses who are offering great gifts for Mother's Day.

I hope this gets some of your creative juices flowing. Thanks again Sarah for inspiring me!
