6Feb18, IslanderView Inspiration & Quote of the Day

Checking in!

Are you still working

towards your 2018 goals?

Here's some new ideas for your new life in 2018

Love to write? Have something you want

to share with the world?

Why not try Blogging?

WHAT IS A BLOG

Do a little research and see if blogging could be for you.

I am using BLOGGER for the IslanderView blog.

There are many apps you can choose from.

BLOGGER is one that is FREE.

Free is always nice.

After a year with BLOGGER, I plan to move to a PAID URL/web address: www.islanderview.com

If not a blog, why not write a book?

Tomorrow, I share some FREE resources on this.

More information on writing and publishing your very own books!

February is the month of LOVE. We have several couples from on and off island who have honored us with their participation.

Please join us when we go live with February issue.

Our March is will focus on IslanderView's 8th anniversary and the journey to 2018. Established in 2010, we have been mainly on social media and relaunched this blogsite last November. Much appreciation to Dr. Matilda Naputi Rivera for inspiring me with her blogsite and being the web master for PIBBA Guam, PIBBA International, both the Guam Poets Club & Micronesia Poets Club. Saina Ma'ase Dr. Rivera!

Our feature line up is coming along nicely. Please email me if you have someone in mind whom we may want to feature. Islanders from Guam, NMI, Palau, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Samoa, Hawaii are all qualified.
