If you haven’t yet, you should also check out the AW’s home page, and the “Who’s Hosting the Next AW?” welcomes any geoblogger that has an idea for another AW. I think you’ll find these self-explanatory, but don’t hesitate to leave questions there, or on my blog if they arise.

We have an Accretionary Wedge posting coming up soon. If you’re not familiar with it, The Accretionary Wedge is the geoblogosphere’s (mostly) monthly carnival, where participants write up a post on a pre-chosen theme. This month’s theme is “Let’s Do A Time Warp”; participants are asked to pick a time and place they’d most like to visit first hand in a time machine. This post is a perfect bit to include. I would take an excerpt, a sentence or few, maybe link a picture, and then link to your blog and this specific post. So you would probably get a bit more traffic and exposure. Take a look at the first link to get a better sense of what the community of geobloggers is up to. My own blog, where the second link is posted, is a mishmash of lots of stuff, not just geology. Most geobloggers pretty much stick to that topic. I guess I’ll just put in an abbreviated link unless I hear back from you; I don’t want to pull a quote or picture without permission. I’m subscribed to comments now, so I’m hoping to hear back from you.
