Tradition! Another Great NaNoWriMo in the Books

Wow!  Wherever did November go?  For those who have been witnessing the daily progression, you know that CoffeeLunchCoffee.com posted a new blog every day in keeping with National Novel Writing Month (“NaNoWriMo”) – a CLC tradition since 2011.

This year, we heard from 23 guest writers and instigators who approached Networking through a multitude of different lenses, perspectives, voices, experiences, ideas and the like.  They made my life easy this year and, as I said on day 1, we are all better for having learned from such a diverse set of experts and Master Networkers.

Sending my heartfelt appreciation to the following contributors and the inspirational people behind posts that I wrote myself.  If you missed any of these great articles, be sure to go back and look through the links associated with the pieces:
