I know we're more than two weeks into it, but I'll say it anyway: Happy New Year! But no new year is complete without the promise of an upcoming blogger meeting, right? The assurance that we blog publishers of the Tulsa area are going to get together over food and a local expert's blogging know-how, for the edification of us all? So we're going to fix that right now.

<p style="text-align: center;">[adrotate banner="8"]</p>
At this months' blogger meetup, you'll get:
<ul>
	<li>To hang out at the exclusive Tulsa Press Club in the historic Atlas Life Building;</li>
	<li>Sliders for dinner! I've put in our order for dinner, so please plan to chow down with us — each plate is a mere $10;</li>
	<li>A free copy of the latest edition of <em><a href="http://www.thislandpress.com/" target="_blank">This Land</a></em></li>
	<li>The expertise of local public relations pro Mandy Vavrinak, who is going to talk to us about how PR can help blog publishers</li>
	<li>To generally enjoy the company of your fellow Tulsa-area bloggers</li>
</ul>
<strong>Cost of admission to this event is $10, which goes to cover the cost of your yummy slider dinner</strong>; the opportunity to mix and mingle with some of Tulsa's most influential online media makers is, of course, always free. 

Big thanks to the folks at Tulsa Press Club for hosting us — <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/360716643942229/">please RSVP to the Tulsa Blogger Meetup: New Year Edition on this Facebook event BY THE END OF THE DAY TODAY</a> so I can give a final head count to the folks who will be whipping up our food. I'll collect your cash for dinner at the event. 

See you all there!
