So this may be Mommy Blogger suicide, but I've decided to become one of the most dangerous {or stupid} Mommy Bloggers on the internet.

How? You may wonder?

Well, after many conversations with other {virtual} friends lately I've heard so much discontent with the state of the Blogosphere.

I heard all about the "swag" fiasco at BlogHer {from 2 people!}, I heard about the "shut out" on the Nestle event last week, I've seen the result of caddiness in the pursuit of fame & I'm sure fortune {somewhere in there}

And it really got me thinking ... where do I want to fit in with these folks?

Most certainly NOT with any knives in my back!

Of course, the question begging to be asked is "WHY"?

Why would I want to be a part of all this?

Simple.

Deep down inside, I really want to be a writer. And every writer desires to be published!

{well, for a long time I wanted to be a spy too. But I can't pretend to accomplish that fantasy as easily from home in my PJ's}

So, my ultimate decision is ... I'm not for sale.

While I've always dreamed of being that wealthy jet-setting writer, I'm not ready to pay the price for it. {at least not with my dignity}

So rest assured readers ... any opinions you read here are that of my own & ABSOLUTELY NOT swayed by any $$$ {unfortunately, this means ~ I'm still financially challenged! Maybe the CIA will recognize my talents & recruit me ~ secretly, of course}

:-)

As always ... comments welcome!
