Amy Mascott aka Teachmama gave me so much insight that I’d been looking for to start my blog. There is so much information on the web, but I needed to learn more about practical applications and start up of my blog. I could see that others as well as myself walked away with the knowledge and tools we needed to get going. I can’t recommend her and her Blog Buildng Workshop enough. If you’ve ever thought about blogging, Amy’s workshop is an absolute must. I wish I had taken her workshop sooner. I’ve spent a year trying to figure out what she gave me in just a few short hours.

frequently asked questions:
Bring a laptop so you can set up your blog, create, and design during the workshop.
It’s affordable but still expensive for me. Can you help me make this work?
Absolutely. I’m more than willing to make sure that everyone who wants to attend these workshops can do so. Please feel free to email me directly to talk about it: [email protected]
What about if I’m the least tech-savvy person in the world?
It’s okay. We still want you to attend the workshops because we promise you’ll get this. It’s not rocket science, and you can do it. Promise.
I can’t make one of the workshops. Are you doing the same thing on both days?
YES, yes, YES!! Same exact workshop both days–so you choose the date that works for you. If you need more, you can always sign up for a Blog Building Consult or a Personal Blog Audit–just for a little more one-on-one consultation and time.[/text_block]
Absolutely. Even if you’ve started your blog, I can help make sure you are on the right track before you get too far!
What blog platform will you be working on?
If you haven’t yet started a blog, we’ll start you on a WordPress.com blog; however, don’t sweat it if you’ve already started on blogger, wix, squarespace, etc. I’ve worked with most platforms and can help you regardless!
My child wants to start a blog. How old do you have to be to attend these workshops?
Most blog and social media platforms’ Terms of Service (TOS) require that users be at least 13 years old, so we will also follow that age as a requirement for attendance. If your child is tech savvy and is older than 13, I’d be happy to teach him/her how to start a blog, but you, as the parent, must attend as a paying student as well so you know exactly what we’re doing and can guide and support your child at home.

I currently anchor the Scholastic Parents Raise a Reader blog, and I’ve written posts for dozens and dozens of sites including The Huffington Post, Melissa & Doug Playtime Press, MyPrintly.com, Sylvan’s Mom Minded blog, Patch.com, and more.
