On Writing Reviews…

When I found the mom blogs, and other life bloggers, I realized that I had the answers at my finger tips.  Answers in that, there are other people out there that can make recommendations.

Over time, I’ve come to know many of you and trust your opinion like I would someone who lives right down the street and over the past 18 months, I’ve shared seven reviews with you.  I haven’t done many, to be honest.  I’m picky about what I review and I would rather review something that I’ve actually USED as opposed to someone paying me to review something.

While I’m all for free stuff, I want to WANT to tell you about something and I don’t ever want to become a sellout.  It’s not why I started this blog.

But it is why I started this one…

No, I’m kidding.

But I would like to introduce you to my latest venture… Desperately Seeking Reviews.

And the lovely and talented Beth from I Should Be Folding Laundry and Ruby and Roja designed my header… and then I in all my geekiness made the rest of it pretty.  I’m quite pleased.

Now then.

I need for you to do me a few things… first, go there, to the review site and subscribe to the RSS feed, either by email or through your trusty reader and then?

Read all about The 39 Clues which is my first official post over there.

Enter the giveaway for a book, backpack and tee-shirt from the good folks at scholastic.  But over there.. not here!

And make sure you come back because I have a few more giveaways up my sleeve…. all of things that I was not contacted to review, rather things that I’ve used and I want to share with you.  The companies were ever so nice to give me something to give to you…

Back to your regularly scheduled blogging…

Oh and yesterday?  I was a little whiney.  I’m okay now.  Much better.  Perhaps I’ll post about it… a little later…

Until next time…
