We’re in the CMBA!!

Posted on July 31, 2011 | 14 Comments

I just got an email informing me that Backlots has been accepted into the Classic Movie Blog Association!! I am told that it was one of only two blogs to be accepted this round. Thank you, dear readers, for your loyalty, and for your wonderful comments and contributions that make this blog what it is. I really appreciate all of you and your insight, and thanks for reading!

Woohoo!!

Many thanks,

-Lara

Thank you!! Well, the blog is pretty new, it’s only been around for 4 months and I struggled for a while to promote it, I wasn’t sure how to drive traffic here. With some advice from friends and a twitter account, it seems to be getting more traffic lately!! Your comments are so nice, thank you so much!

Welcome.

I don’t even remember how I felt upon breaking the CMBA barrier. Everything’s a blur. I might have passed out!

I couldn’t believe it, and I’m still pretty much on cloud 9! I can’t wait to get to know everybody and their blogs. Thanks for the welcome!
