You may be asking yourself, who are Cinnamon, Ed and Nina, and why would I want to go to this "fest" they're planning. Well here's a start. If you want to know more, please post questions in our Guestbook.
The blogfest was conceived by Cinnamon and adopted by Ed and Nina because, well, it involved food and booze. Oh, and a party - let's not forget the party. What better project to adopt than a party. We are all bloggers, of different sorts, and we wanted to create a way for local bloggers to get together and meet in person, and perhaps even have out-of-town bloggers visit. As much as we all, obviously, view online communication as a good thing, we also know that meeting in person elevates communication to a new level.
We also like to party.This party idea is going to be a theme throughout the planning of the bash. In fact, if this doesn't work out, we'll plan a different sort of party. So honest, the blogging bit is just an excuse...for a party.
So, our goal is first and foremost to have a good time. And we'd like to create a way for others to have a good time too. Any benefits beyond that are purely incidental.
Speaking of having a good time, please read the following small print: If this becomes something that's not fun to organize, well, we're not going to. It's as simple as that. We'll go out to dinner ourselves. We'd love to get suggestions. We welcome them. But we reserve the right to make unilateral (okay, trilateral) decisions without consulting anyone. You can plan your own fest if you don't like our decisions. We don't want to sound un-inviting. In fact we're inviting the world. That's how inviting we are. But we did want to take a moment to remind you this is not a democracy.
