Help Others. Help Yourself. 

Day One. September 20, 2013

Here it goes. My launch into blogdom (is that a word ... yet?). I'm on a quest to make a new life.  I really have MANY goals, but my PR background pushes me to focus on three: blog, socialize (in person) and merchandise.

Why am I blogging my adventure? I aim to discover how so many bloggers make a living online -- and be inspired by it, follow their lead. I see success everywhere, but I'm not sure of the steps these (mostly) women took to make it a viable living. I applaud them.  And I want to join and contribute to this creative, online community.

My background is PR and journalism. I spend my life wondering "who, what, when, why, where and how" about nearly everything. But I haven't shared for a while.

If you have stumbled across my blog -- welcome. Do you admire a particular blog or blogger and want to know more than just the "About Me" page? Or do you have a specific question about the profitable side of blogging? Tell me why, and yours may be the lead I follow. Every week, I want to tap the wisdom of a successful blogger/entrepreneur.

I suspect many successful bloggers have learned to balance work and life, or combine them. And I suspect there are as many ways to do this as there are creative people. Let's find out ... are you with me?
