BNLF Dehradun - What can we do to show our appreciation for Blogging?
Hey guys, So BNLF (Blog Now, Live Forever) is set for 17th, 18th and 19th of november in Dehradun, with the main event on the 18th of November.
Every BNLF is different and we wanted to make this one something that every blogger could contribute to the lifestyle of Blogging.
For example,
If you are an author, you can showcase your books at BNLF
If you are an illustrator, you could be at BNLF doing a live illustration, painting or anything else that comes to fancy.
If you are a parasailor, come land at BNLF
If you are into fashion , come dressed to show off some Indian fashion.
If you are a dancer, we can give you time on stage to do a jig!
If you are part of a biker/travel community ,Plan a Ride to BNLF!
If you are into music, We could write a song or a musical or a play.
It could be anything! Let us know in the comments. This is our chance as Bloggers to make the biggest noise we have ever made as a community!
Although there will be an agenda, we want to make this BNLF about YOU. About the peronalities that give Blogs life. This is a great time to promote your blog. With the literature festival Valley Of Words in the mix, we expect millions of people to be tuned in to this event.
Registrations will be opening soon. This thread is to gather some info and discuss on what you guys think is possible. There are no limits to what you can do in this event. Looking forward to your thoughts.
Reason: spelling
We can present writings of diverse topics in different forms-prose,poetry,essays in English as well as in many Indian languages as possible.
Thats a good idea! We can do Something around Indic languages
Hi Anoop, I cannot thank you and team IndiBlogger enough for the last BNLF. I felt like I found my tribe there. There are very few places where an introvert like me fits in and BNLF was like returning to the mothership. Kudos for bringing such a huge crowd of passionate and creative bloggers together and those amazing speakers, Oh Wow! The massive event was well planned and managed. You guys rocked literally and figuratively. I am working on my non-fiction book for a while and was planning to publish it in January 2018. After reading your post I want to publish it in November 2017 so that I can showcase it in BNLF. I am very excited about this please let me know how to make this happen. Thanks, Yamini Kharat Saha
Nice. Have not been able to attend the earlier ones... I remember I was at the Kumaon Lit Fest as a speaker during one of the BNLFs.
Dehradun isn't far from Delhi and Specky and I should be able to make it.
Thanks for making this about the Bloggers and the Blogs, Anoop & Team! :) :)
What I'd recommend is to have a lots of activities based on teams created AT the venue, so everyone gets to meet new people, rather than spend time with only the people they already knew :) That's one thing I've noticed in past meets.
As far as what we could do, I already foresee an array of music, dance and spontaneous poetry lined-up! ;)
Love,
Sharu
Biking to BNLF sounds enticing!
Do we have anything for thosw who can not make it but still want to pe a part...?
Would love to be there. It sounds interesting!
I am excited about it and love to there in Dehradun!
Who is RioZee , and whose autobiography is he writing, and why is he doing so?
Dancing at #BNLF sounds fun, but I am classical dancer.
Wow. How wonderful! I've always wanted to see a live classical dance performance.
Am game for Karaoke ... @BlogwatiG, where are you?
Do we book our own accomodation at Dehradun? Or is everyone staying at one place and obviously paying for their stay?
Hi All
I have registered for BNLF, but I am still confused on what would I be doing there. I mean, I am a content writer and a blogger since 7 years, but I write more for my clients rather than for myself. I do have blogs of my own, but they have not been updated since around a year or more. With not much to showcase in the name of personal writing, am I eligible to be a part of such a mega event, which will witness the participation of the who's who of the blogging world? Anyone, please suggest me If I should be there or not, so that I could book tickets and room before its gets late.

Thanks!
Applications for the IndiCrew are open!
I Have registered to be in Deheradun, and also have given my blog contents for nomination for BNLF Award. But my current offical consigments are becoming resistance...You Know that typical "Hari Sadu" type Bosses are always to blamed at!...But I will see, if any option pop up at the end moment!.....Wish All success for the event....Keeping My fingers crossed that the jury likes one of my entries. Keep Blogging !
Hey everyone, we're sorry about the snafu created over the weekend; we're relieved to say that things are back on track now. All this started when one of the sponsors of the event (Story Mirror) backed out due to creative differences, which is why we had changed a few things on the agenda. We didn't want to make any promises we couldn't keep at the time. However, thanks to the VOW organizers, it's been sorted. Dinner on the 17th and Breakfast on the 18th (in the form of meal coupons) will be provided. Transportation has been organised on both days to take everyone home (priority given to women). The Ruskin Bond Walk is back to the 18th morning - more details on the walk are coming soon. We are still working on filling a few other holes left behind by Story Mirror, and will have clarity on that soon.
Please let us know if there are any other questions or concerns.
Does anyone here need accomodation at the venue? Rooms are available on the event page, please let us know if you're interested!
I can't wait to be there #BNLF #RoadToDehradun
Will there be Webcast of the BNLF event live? If so requesting for the link. Will be eager to watch the happenings there. Cheers Gyan
Is it okay to join from Saturday morning as I'm leaving Delhi this evening (17th Nov) :-|
