I’ve had a blog (albeit, in several different forms) since 2008. I’m amazed by a couple of things when I look around at other moms with successful money-making blogs. Some of these bloggers have been online and working for a shorter amount of time than I. There are a dang lot of women bloggers, but… Read More »
(My friend, Jamie at BlondeMomBlog, posted this cartoon with her year-end post. I had to borrow it for mine. I love it.) It’s a new year—the perfect time for reflections and fresh starts. I’m a real sucker for cliched rituals like that. And so, I look back and look forward. I started this blog one… Read More »
I have been consumed (consumed, I tell you!) with a social media phenomenon this week surrounding the overnight success and explosive viral growth of a Facebook fan page called Crock Pot Girls. In fact, you’ve probably “liked” it and at least a dozen or so of your friends have “liked” it within the last few… Read More »

It’s called PLR articles. Let’s face it: for those of us who want our blogs to generate income, we are sometimes at a loss for… Read More »
Hey, y’all. I’ve been completely off my blog for about two months. I really hadn’t planned to be, but my spring has been so busy with birthdays, holidays, end of school, a few sicknesses, work, and church. I kind of just set my blog aside awhile as I evaluated (always evaluating!) my online pursuits. I… Read More »
I spent several hours on Saturday with the Nashville Women Who Blog, a group of women who blog and live in and among the Nashville area. I was first introduced to this group in the fall of 2009. I had been blogging and feeling my way around the business side of blogging for a few… Read More »
I’ve been blogging here for a few months, and I appreciate your reading. Now, I’d like to hear from you. What do you like? What would you like to read about more? I’d love to create an eBook, but I want to hear what you’d like to read. On what topics would you like for… Read More »
What’s In Your House? Weekly Link-up This week’s writing prompt for the weekly link-up: What do you see on your front porch (or main exterior entryway) of your house? What’s the potential for creativity there? How might God use your front porch for great purposes? My response: I managed to pick a super-hard first writing… Read More »
