Happy Birthday!!!!

Manolo shouts,

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday to the Manolo’s Shoe Blog!!!!

One year ago exactly today, the Manolo he invented the shoe blog. As the first shoe blogger it was the intention of the Manolo to share with the world his love of the shoes and the fashion and the fun. And, the blog, it has succeeded beyond the wildest expectations. Even the better, soon after the Manolo started, other shoe and purse and fashion blogs sprang up like the spring flowers after the rain, and so the internets it became the beautiful, chaotic place of the hundred wonderful fashion blogs.

What now lies ahead for the Manolo and humble shoe blogs?

There are things coming that will astound and amuse the many internet friends of the Manolo.

For the example, this evening, the Manolo he will announce the winners of his Super Fantastic Essay Contest, and you will be able to read some of the wonderful stories that were submitted to the contest.

And then tomorrow, on the Monday, there will be the big announcement of the new relationship that will bring the wider readership and exposure to the blogs of the Manolo.

Going forward from this place, there are other things planned. Already, you have been introduced to the all new Manolo for the Brides, and to the Never teh Bride, the very funny blogger who the Manolo found to revive his languishing bride blog.

This it is only the first step in what the Manolo hopes will become the small network of the quality fashion and humor blogs, blogs written by talented and funny people, like the Never teh Bride, and published under the editorial guidence of the Manolo. Yes, it is true, the Manolo he would like to be like the Martha Stewart on the internets, only much, much nicer and with the better shoes.

So, look over the coming months for new blogs from the Manolo, new blogs featuring new and distinctive voices. It will be the quality of the writings, not so much the topic, that will distinguish the blog network of the Manolo.

And there is more, much more planned for the future, things almost too super fantastic to be mentioned. But, do not worry, the Manolo he has no intention of changing his Shoe Blog. It is the true labor of the love, the touchstone for all he does.
