WOW Interview If you made it here via WOW! Women on Writing, thank you and welcome. Thanks for finding your way here. I hope you’ll find something here that will delight you. Do say howdy via comments. I’d love to hear from you!

If you don’t know what I’m talking about… Do check out the November issue of WOW! (this month’s issue is mostly about literary agents and writing). You can read my interview with the fabulous Angela Miyuki Mackintosh in their Inspiration Column: Meet Shai Coggins.

I really enjoyed this interview. I like the fact that it covered a lot of aspects of my life right now - and at the same time, gave some insights on how I got here and where I want to go someday.

Anyway, do head over to WOW! They have a fantastic ezine for folks interested in writing, reading and publishing. And, seriously, I’m not just saying that because they interviewed me. ;-)
In fact, they have featured amazing folks like author Amy Tan (one of my faves!), Ann Moore (CEO, Time, Inc.), Tiffani Amber Thiessen (aspiring writer/actress that I feel strangely connected with for some reason), and Debbie Ridpath Ohi (a blogger/illustrator/author that I really, really admire), among many others. So, you can imagine why I’m sooo thrilled to be a part of WOW!

Top 50 Australian Woman BloggerAnother list I’m excited to be a part of is the Top 50 Australian Women Bloggers list - for Just Make Money Online (currently in Top 10) and ShaiCoggins.com (currently in Top 25). A big thanks to Leigh from All for Women for putting this together. And, congrats to everyone who made it to the list. It’s a great way to get to know many fabulous Aussie-based women bloggers. I already recognise a few names there - and it’s cool to discover new ones.

So, there ya go.

Excuse me as I do a little happy dance today.
