Mailbox Monday fans its your turn!
Updated Monday @ 11:51PM MT (I work the late shift and do my thing when you all are sleeping)
Book bloggers are a phenomenal group of people and I feel blessed right now. Mailbox Monday’s blog tour is booked through September of 2011!! I’m absolutely blown away by the response. More details and a MMBT page to come here at The Printed Page but I just wanted to say thank you. I hope you all have as much fun hosting as I’ve had.
And one other thing you need to know right from the start: hosting MM is and should be FUN (yep I’m shouting at you
). Life happens and there’s not a darn thing you can do to stop it from getting in the way sometimes. So if for any reason you can’t host you’re not to fret, panic, get in a tizzy or wonder how to tell me. I’m your built in backup and can host any month. Enjoy!
***
Many of you have expressed how much you’ll miss Mailbox Monday as will I. Truly its been one of the most fun things that I’ve done here at The Printed Page. I spent lots of time debating with myself about ending my hosting duties and in the end finally decided that I needed a change. But all good things don’t have to come to an end. Just because I’m not hosting doesn’t mean that Mailbox Monday can’t go on and with a little help for our friends we’ll have years to enjoy one of our favorite MEMEs. Join Mailbox Monday’s blog tour!
OK so finally you can admit it out loud – secretly you’ve been wanting to host Mailbox Monday! There now that you’ve gotten that part out of way you too can join the fun of hosting Mailbox Monday for a month. No long term commitment, no contracts, no fine print. Just pick your month. I’ll handle the publicity, hosting sign up and host notification. You – one month of having everyone stop by your blog.
So… coming soon will be a Mailbox Monday Blog Tour page with all the details. My real job gets in the way of blogging so I’ll work on it at work when the boss is ignoring me.
For now pick your month and leave me a comment with your selection(s). As months will fill up fast you better pick more than one in the order you’d like to host. Months will be awarded first-come, first-served.

Oh no! Say it ain’t so!
But I can understand needing a break. Assuming I can figure out Mr. Linky, I’d like to host any month in 2011.
Thanks for all your hard work making this one of my all time favorite memes!
Thanks for volunteering to host. I’ll help with Mr. Linky
Your hosting month: January 2011
I’ll take one for this fall – September, October or November – and just keep my fingers crossed that my real life doesn’t get in the way. Thanks, Marcia!
Thanks for volunteering to host. I know you have a lot on your personal life plate right now so if you need to change months, back out or whatever just let me. I’ll pick up the slack for you.
Your hosting month: September 2010
I’d love to be able to help in August or October or November
This is my favorite meme!
Thanks for volunteering to host MM in August.
I’m sad to hear you’re no longer going to be hosting MM, Marcia! I’d love to take a turn hosting (although like Rose City Reader, I may need some help with Mr. Linky). You can put me down for October or November.
Thanks for volunteering to host MM. I can help with Mr Linky so don’t worry there. Your month is October.
Okay, I’ll go for February 2011. By then I will have learned from my sister bloggers. Thanks!
Thanks for volunteering to host. February 2011 is all yours.
I won’t mind taking over in October, November or December. I love this meme, and I know that it’s a lot of work, so thank you for keeping it going!
Julie @ Knitting and Sundries
Thank you for volunteering to host. You’ve got November.
Marcia, I’ll take December 2010 if it’s still open. If not, then any month next year! I’m glad you’ve created a solution to keep it going. I always look forward to Mailbox Mondays!
December is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
Sign me up for the next available month. I’m also in the camp of needing to figure out Mr. Linky, but it can’t be that hard!
Thank you for hosting for so long, and for being willing to organize us to continue
.
March 2011 is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM. Mr Linky is a breeze but if you help just let me know.
What a FABULOUS idea Marcia! I would LOVE to host a month…please feel free to pick one for me if you have any free space!
I see that you’re reading Poison…I can’t wait to see that you think of it!
Take care!
April 2011 is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM. I just started Poison last night so I’m only 24 pages in but so far it’s pretty good.
Marcia, if you have trouble filling up next year’s calendar, I’d be glad to host another month or two. And I, too, may need help with Mr. Linky!
I was so sad when I started reading that Mailbox Monday wouldn’t be continuing but am glad to see that it will live on with the help of so many. I would love to host a month, as well. How about May 2011. Thanks, Marcia.
May is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
I’ll host June 2011 or any available month really.
June is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
I’ll sign on for June, July, or August of 2011. This is a great idea for keeping a wonderful feature going!
July 2011 is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
May- December of next year any month!!
August 2011 is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
I’m happy to host any month of May – Dec next year if you need it!
September 2011 is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
You’re very welcome!
I can host in any of the remaining 2011 months.
October 2011 is all yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
Oops! Posted this on the wrong post before! I’d love to do November 2011 Maria!
Let me know.
Best,
Holly Tucker
November 2011 is yours. Thanks for volunteering to host MM.
Marcia, I sent you an email. I will host December 2011 as well.
I sent you an email.
Looks like I missed the signups. Ah, well, I’m just glad that the meme will continue. I just want to thank you for hosting, Marcia. It’s been fun!
I know 2012 is a long ways out but I’m more than happy to add you to wait list and if someone should drop out I’ll send you an email and see if you want to host.
