Day 4 of Arkansas Women Bloggers ThanksBlogging Challenge – Link up with Facebook…

No matter what you may think about Facebook–good or bad–it is an amazing social networking website, shrinking the world every day, allowing long lost friends to reconnect and strangers to stalk one another. 

At the urging of Arkansas Women Bloggers, I created a Facebook page for Grace Grits & Gardening. I should have done it sooner…

With my Grace Grits & Gardening Fan Page, I have the potential to reach millions of people–if friends ‘like’ and share and their friends ‘like’ and share, and so on and so on…. 

The power of the internet.


Schnauzer pics and “Go Hogs” shout-outs are posted on my personal page. Posts related to writing, gardening, etc are included on my Grace Grits & Gardening Fan Page. Sometime there is overlap – oops.
I try not to overshare or whine on either page. No checking in at Wal-Mart or political rants. No ticker tape thoughts for the day. If you agree, please like and share🙂
