If you aren't familiar with The Southern Coterie you need to pop over immediately and get with the program! Whether you are southerner or just want to learn about the south, this is the place for you! Founded in 2011, The Southern Coterie is touted as "The Southern Network of the South." It's a place to celebrate all things southern!
When I first found out Cheri Leavy and Whitney Long, founders of the Southern C were holding a Summit on Jekyll Island, I was intrigued to say the least. I had attended Alt Summit and Design Bloggers Conference already this year, so I wasn't too sure my hubby was going to agree for me to travel to my third blog conference of the year, but once I luckily won an admissions ticket on twitter there was no argument. It was on the calendar!
I just returned from the inaugural "Southern Coterie Summit held at Jekyll Island the past three days. What Whitney Long and Cheri Leavy have created is nothing short of genius. The was my third blog conference this year, but the first where I felt the genuine hospitality of the hostesses. Of course that could be because this was the first one held in the south! You know we southerners like to entertain and take care of our guest. I think that i taught at birth here. I didn't know Whitney or Cheri prior to attending the event, other than online. I now feel like we are all old friends. The quality and content of what I learned over the past three days have my me rethinking my approach to my blog and investigating now options. I can't wait to share everything I experience but honestly it is too for one post. To be fair to the conference my coverage of it will be broken down into several posts.
