Since Blog Carnival has ONCE AGAIN started to not work at all recently (most everyone that I know has had technical difficulties), you can use the Blog Carnival HQ submission form clicking here.
Also, I am now putting the final touches on the hosting schedule for 2012. Currently, all months have been claimed except for December 2012, so if you'd be interested in hosting on at the end of this year/beginning of 2013, take a look at the hosting schedule and then send me an email to get on the schedule.
