WFMW: Works For Me! {Ebook Announcement}

January 31, 2012 by Kristen

I’m straying from my usual tip-giving to share an exciting announcement: A team of awesome people have been helping me compile a WFMW ebook!

It’s called That Works For Me: Tried and True Tips from Works For Me Wednesday and it’s featuring hundreds and hundreds of the greatest tips from you.

Can I get a woot?

For the first time, the best tips from carnivals over the past several years will be organized in a searchable, categorized easy-to-use ebook!

It will be released Spring of 2012.

If you participate regularly in WFMW, please check your inbox (or comments if you don’t have an email on your blog) for a time sensitive email in case one of your tips was chosen for the ebook.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit Mercy House.

[Updated] I forgot to mention that my portion of the proceeds are going towards our savings fund to bring our kids back to Africa with us this summer to do our annual staff development, skill training and develop our new community program for single moms.

I hope you’re as excited as we are!

Because that works for me.

AND—to celebrate this fun news, I’m mixing it up with a thumbnail picture linky instead of what we normally do. I’ve been thinking about trying it. Make sure you leave your preference in the comments: regular linky or picture.

    I’m not a fan of the picture linky. To me, it makes it harder to scan what people have posted, and I don’t like having to find a picture for my link.

    Woot! on the ebook!

    I really really prefer the list because there is too much scrolling down to view the pictures and my old computer doesn’t scroll without a lot of complaining and crashes.

    I like the pictures, but many times the tips that I am sharing do not include a picture. I could certainly try to take a picture of a basket of clothes if I am posting about laundry, but it’s not something I would normally do. I could go either way, but think the list was good.

    Congratulations on the upcoming e-book! I’m so glad that part of the proceeds are going to Mercy House.

    Personally, I prefer the standard text linky. With the pictures it’s harder to read the link titles, and will so many people who participate in WFMW, it looks a little bulky. But that’s just my opinion. 🙂

    Today I’m linking up a yummy cheeseburger pie recipe that’s always a hit with my family!

    Awesome idea with the ebook! I personally prefer the list without the pics. It’s easier to scan to me. And sometimes I just don’t have a picture to share (like this week).

    I prefer pictures, a lot of times I won’t even linkup or view the regulat linkups because I have limited time to read each one to see if I’m interested in the link. With pics I can decide quickly if it’s something I’m interested in :).

    I’m so glad that you are doing a linky with pictures! I am so much more of a visual person. Sometimes titles of things can be deceiving and even sound boring-but they are really good projects!
    I linked up two projects today:
    When life gives you too many scarves-make a shirt! My Springy, Silky Scarf Shirt. It’s easy to make, fun to wear and looks good on everyone.
    And I created Free Bachelor Bingo that accompanies watching the Bachelor on Monday nights. It’s a great way to interact with friends or family while you’re watching!
    Have a great week!

I link up to several parties that use pictures so usually have one available, but I don’t have a preference. I will be going back through your blogs and checking out some of the older parties. Today I brought Red Velvet Cherry Bars. I will be back, pictures or not. Thanks for hosting and have a great week.
