In this age of social media rule, a pervasive online presence is a requirement for the survival of a blog. As Backlots grows in its readership and prominence online, I have realized the need to expand its reach on the various social media platforms on which the blog has a presence.
Backlots’ Facebook page has proven to be a spot where I can post content for my readers, but I have found it to be limiting in terms of interaction. So hear ye, hear ye–in addition to Backlots’ Facebook page, I am hereby introducing the Backlot Commissary! The Commissary is a Facebook group in which readers can have interactive discussions with each other, post content, and communicate with other classic film fans. I hope that it will be a nice place for classic film socializing, and that we can have some great and meaningful discussions there.

Great idea, Lara, and I look forward to it! I have to admit shamefully that I tried a page of my own, but I was a terrible owner owner … just not consistent enough to make it work! Well, that’s me, and I’ll just join in on the fun with your page. Happy New Year, Lara!
I guess you know that “owner owner” was not what I meant to say! I think I’m typing too fast!
