No, you don't have to take any time off of work - this carnival will be happening online. From mid-June through July, the Carnival of Nonprofit Consultants will taking place in the blogosphere.
What's a virtual carnival? Here's how founding organizer Kivi Leroux Miller describes it: "This carnival is a collection of the best advice and resources that consultants and other support organizations are offering to nonprofits through their blogs each week."
Basically, each week the organizer posts a topic of interest to nonprofits - maybe it will be communications, maybe it will be grant writing, maybe something else. Participating bloggers (including this site) write on that topic. The best seven posts of the week are collected onto the organizer's site in a sort of weekly eZine.
For the bloggers, it's a bit of friendly competition to see whose posts will be chosen, as well as a bit of inspiration in the form of a writing prompt.
For the readers, it's a great way to discover new bloggers and resources that you can turn to for more advice long after the carnival is through.
