What’s Your Passion?

What’s your passion? What do you know a lot about? Is it a craft, a school subject, a hobby, a lifestyle choice, or . . . ?

The Swap is looking to add specialists in a variety of areas who will each monitor ONE forum thread about their specialty. The initial post in the thread will be a short article YOU write, designed to help a beginner get started doing the thing in which you specialize. (Short or long is fine . . . help is available if you aren’t a writer.) Then, you would just need to check the thread on a somewhat regular basis, to see if anyone has posted questions for you to answer. To make sure you understand, you would be monitoring only one THREAD on a forum, not an entire forum.

Each specialist will be promoted on a regular basis on our blog, Facebook, and Twitter. All you “get” is a bit of publicity, and the knowledge that you are helping others enjoy something you enjoy. When it’s time to promote your specialty, we’ll add a link to your blog, website, or whatever you would like to draw attention to.

Yes, you may specialize in more than one area (and then you would have more than one thread to monitor).

Ideas are endless: couponing, cloth diapering, home birth, getting started homeschooling, homeschooling high school, building birdhouses, organizing a closet, collecting stamps, etc. The only requirement is that it’s an activity you LOVE and have experience with yourself.

Hopefully, this can grow to be an enormous resource of many specialties. There is no substitute for experience, and The Swap includes members with a variety of talents and abilities. Please contact me if interested, by clicking the little “Email Me” icon at the top, left of this page.

Along with our active members, new members or lurkers are encouraged to consider doing this, as a way to get more involved in the forum. You don’t need to be a professional writer. This is intended to be one parent to another, and should be approached in a lighthearted and personal manner.
