Taking A Leave Of Absence From Blogsurvey To Write A Book About Corporate Blogging

I am happy to announce that I will be working on a book about corporate blogging over the next few months. Butterworth - Heineman Business Books or Elsevier and I just signed a contract to write a book about business blogs called "strategies and tools for corporate blogging."

My thanks to Jane Macdonald, the acquisitions editor for Butterworth-Heinemann for all of the work she put into creating the relationship and getting us to this point.

As part of the effort to finish the book I am taking a leave of absence from my role as Director of Blogging Strategies at Backbone Media, Inc. in Waltham. I will not be updating the blogsurvey blog for a while, but you will still find me writing the occasional post on my personal blog PR Communications.

Wow, yet another corporate blogging book. I wish you well, John.

Thanks Chris, though this book will be less about what is a blog, and more about how to do effective blogging. I think the basics have been covered I hope this book will take us to the next stage.

Congrats John!

If you want advice, ask me and do the opposite :)
Seriously, I hope and expect it'll be a great experience for you!
