    All Hail Our Single Girls

    A Shout Out to Our Amazing Contributors, Our Single Girls

    As we celebrate 1 year of The Single Diaries we would be remiss not to recognize the Single Girls who have contributed to the making of this site. From our long-time friends to friends whom we’ve recently met, there are nearly 50 amazing women whose talents make up these pages.

    The posts that they have contributed are as varied as the women themselves. Some have shared their advice through original articles. Others have let us tap their talents for an interview. While still others have shared their words of wisdom for posts Catherine and I have put together.

    No matter the method, the result remains the same. We are always inspired by their passion, ability, and fortitude. We’ve:

    • Learned from their adventures in romance.
    • Explored the world through their travels.

    • Been motivated by their pursuits.

    Needless to say, we think our Single Girls rock.

    When I thought about the best way to recognize The Single Diaries contributors I could think of no better idea than to carry forward this game and allow each girl the chance to express what she is most proud. See what they had to say-

    Single Girls we’re looking to you to lend us a hand by nominating The Single Diaries for Forbes 5th annual round up of the best websites for women. Each year the publisher curates a list of sites which ‘provide take-away information and tools that directly benefit you. [Sites that] will cultivate your career, inspire change, or maybe just make you think a little differently.‘  To give you a better idea, here’s a look at last year’s list.

    When we launched our site we did so with the mission to advise and inspire young women like ourselves to grow with the challenges we face each day. Though we call it The Single Diaries, we use ‘Single‘ not as a way to define relationship status but as a way to emphasize the importance of having strong and healthy relationships, starting with the one you nourish with yourself. We hope that we’ve been able to deliver content that not only entertains you but also helps you learn something new, motivates you to accomplish your goals, and inspires you to dream bigger.

    If that is the case, we would truly be honored to have your support as we strive to accomplish this big dream of ours. To cast you nomination, simply
