*And I will visit everyone this evening - I have a seminar to teach this morning and will not be back until late afternoon.
For this topic, I thought I’d give you an example of some really helpful people:
Michael Di Gesu
(And Michael is doing a feature on my book today!)
(And Michael is doing a feature on my book today!)
These five always go out of their way to help others and put the spotlight on someone else. All of them possess great attitudes and giving spirits. They are real champions.
True success is based on how many people are richer for knowing us.

I agree these people you mentioned also yourself are fine examples of helpful people and much appreciated you all are also.

Great examples of helpers! Hope your seminar goes well. Nice picture. :)
Yup.
Hugs and chocolate,

Oh wow, thanks! More fun to help others.
Michael did a great job with your book introduction today.
I just passed your blog on to a writer/speaker friend. Thought it would help her.
I completely agree. Help others to help yourself, but also help because it's just plain the right thing to do!
I'm helping our whole women's club tomorrow - I'm in charge of refreshments!
I saw the post at Michael's spot. Very well done.
I have to agree...those are all very helpful folks and do a lot for the community :)

Michael is helping me later this month. All those bloggers are so generous and helpful.
Great list. And I love the picture!
Michael's intro for your book today was great. It's always good to help others when we can.
Helping others is huge. I keep trying to find groups of authors to join so I can help and be helped, but I've had zero luck in finding people who don't flake out.
I help someone every day. I work with handicapped people. It gets old sometimes.
You're a big help too. I've had a few people visiting me, from comments I've made on your blog - according to the stats I just checked that just now bought me here - thanks. I try to be helpful by writing how much I enjoy their blog when I reply to the comments left on my posts. I'm so grateful for A-Z it's really incredible
I've worked with children all my life and often the work extends to after hours...
Great post! I'm off to check out Michael's post!

I'm trying to help as many people as I can. :-)
I too am trying to help people.
Busy doctor visiting this week though.

I am thankful for all the help I got from some of those people. I like to help others, though I am rarely vocal about it, it makes me feel good knowing I helped someone out there.
They really are helpful! And so are you!
Have a great day!
Hi everyone! Sorry, just got back. LONG day, but a very successful seminar. And sold some books - always a bonus.
Helpful peeps are always appreciated. So are iconic cats like Hobbes.
I loved the picture of Hobbes.
I agree that helpers make a big difference in a person's life. I also agree that the people you listed are vey helpful!

Hurrah to the helpful folks! :)
Oh, thank you do much L. Diane! I am honored to be in such amazing blogging company!
Oh man, I'm not at ALL sure I deserve to be up there with those folks, but I truly appreciate it, LD!
I thank the writing 'community' (not just the specific people that help me with a particular story) in the acknowledgements of all my books for a reason: You all give me so much inspiration, courage, camaraderie, and knowledge on a constant, daily basis--I truly wouldn't be doing this without all of you. (You're very much in that 'you', btw, LD. :)
Any small thing I'm able to do to repay that, I sincerely do with a smile on my face.
Always appreciate someone saying nice things about me, though. :D Thank you!
Helping others, yes, that is the true definition of goodness. And all the folks behind this blog deserve a HUGE thanks!

Great guys all of them. It has been a pleasure to get to know them but you are doing great job too, I must say!
LOVED Michael's feature on your book :)
Love the cat photo! :)
You are one of the most helpful people on the blogs, Diane!
Thanks for the links! I already follow the first two, so now I know the other three must be just as awesome, so I'll follow them too. :)
And I absolutely love the adorable cat photo.
From A to Z, Kristen's blog: kristenhead.blogspot.com
Those guys are all great at helping out!
Hi Diane,
Have to agree, all very helpful people you mentioned. And yes, I include your good self.
Although, I also know a really helpful dog :)

That is so kind of you to say that Diane...and such awesome company to be included with. I've taken so much from this community, it's only right to give some back! :)
That's one thing I love about blogging. The people are so helpful. I agree, the list of people you mentioned, they are wonderful.
Nicely done and I'm adding you to the list ;D
Great list-all so helpful!!!
Off to visit them!
Thanks!
