Lucinda and I would like to welcome you to the 8th edition of the Perfect Post Awards – “the power to the blogger awards” because you make it all happen.

The Perfect Post Awards are a chance to read some of the best stuff written each month- and to spread a little warm fuzziness, too. If you’d like to present an award yourself next month, e-mail me or Lucinda and we’ll send you the latest award button code a few days before November 1st, so that you can participate as well. If you’re interested in looking through our past award posts, they can be found in my Shed.

Her Bad Mother for Ordinary People

I am always most impressed when we as bloggers do more than write. By that I mean, when we use this forum to take action and to make things – good things- happen. Her Bad Mother did just that in the entry I’ve chosen this month and called us all to do the same. Not only is this an outstanding post but she received some amazing results as well. When you stop by, don’t forget to read the comments.

“…sometime this week, write a post about a cause that you are passionate about. Provide links and information and guidance for people to actually follow up on your post and take some sort of action: where can they make a donation? Sign a petition? Volunteer? How can they help promote your cause? Use this post as a catalyst for action – make it your mission to show, in whatever small way, how the blogosphere can support real action in support of real causes. It doesn’t have to be big – you don’t have a start a fundraising drive from your blog (although that would be cool), you just need to make a stab at showing how writing/speaking/blogging can support action.”

HBM really got people doing - which I think is more than perfect.
