Purple Stars are fairy dust. They're magic. They're surprises. You'll never know when or where they'll arrive--but you'll get a special email if you're bestowed with some Purple Star goodness.

Purple Star #1

My first and favorite Green Cleaning lens, and the second lens, I'd written on Squidoo.

Twitterings about Purple Stars on Squidoo
These are Happy Starry-eyed Squids. :D

Do you have any Purple Stars on Squidoo?
"How can I get a Purple Star" and the Purple Star Trophy, too!
Here's how to receive and return the Squidoo Love ...
By Nomination!
♥ Hopefully someone who has received a Purple Star and has the chance to pay it forward notices your lens.
♥ Maybe our Squidoo Champions have seen your lens, and thinks it's worthy.
♥ You might ask a Squidoo friend to keep you in mind when they receive a Purple Star. Hint, Hint. :D
When a recipient receives a Purple Star...
they also receive:
♥ A Squid Monster Purple Star Trophy (if they don't already have one)
♥ Monster Points
♥ A small lensrank boost
♥ The chance to pay it forward by completing a Purple Starr Quest (located in their Quests dashboard to nominate a lens)
♥ Points for completing the Quest for being the kind soul they are.
My point? Create the best lenses you can on topics that really excite you, and keep improving and updating the lenses you already have. Don't worry about not having a Purple Star. If you work here on Squidoo is great, one is sure to find you.

I love to share lenses on Twitter. Might be yours, or might be mine. :D
Purple Stars: Have one or want one? Let us know.
Anyone can leave a comment, so please do.
If you have a Purple Star, brag about it here. Want one for one of your favorite lens, share it here. You may be surprised by your very own Purple Star. :D
If you don't have a Purple Star, but want one, try a little good-natured whining.
Hey, it might work. :D

- This is a great Purple Starography! I'm adding it to my Purple Cow Lenses (which is about my purple stars). Can never get enough - would love for all of my lenses to be purple star quality some day. -:)

- Thank you for sharing this with us! I had signed up to Squidoo a little over 6 months ago and wrote 2 lenses but then totally put it on the back burner. I recently noticed through one of my lenses, I had sold a few books on Amazon, without even trying. This got me very motivated and I wrote a couple other lenses last week. This community is full of nice and encouraging people, I am glad to be a part of it. Wish you more success with your articles!
