Happy Friday! I've hinted at the fact that I've been busy with some writing projects, and now it's time to finally fill you in on the details. I'm very excited to be writing regularly for FOUR blogs! I've found these opportunities through social networking on sites like Mom Bloggers Club, MomDot, and Twitter. (By the way, you can follow me on Twitter @marybabysteps.)
You may remember that I've written a few things already for Mommy Matter, an online networking and information site for moms. I'm a contributing editor there - doesn't that sound impressive? It's great experience, wonderful for my resume, and tons of fun. I write mostly about makeup, beauty, and health topics. You can see my articles here.
I'm writing for another mom blog, Mom Spark, a new site providing helpful tips and fun projects for moms and their families. I'll be contributing articles there on beauty and makeup as well. You all know I love talking about girly, pretty stuff!
For something a little different, I'm a regular contributor for a work-at-home site called doWAHdiddy - isn't that a fun name? If I want to write professionally, I have to be able to write on a variety of topics. Writing about productivity, organization, and other topics related to being a successful work-at-home parent is helping me to become a diverse writer, and I'm loving it!
Finally, I'm very excited to be contributing to Blissfully Domestic! Blissfully Domestic is an online magazine geared toward making the lives of moms easier; we can certainly all use a little more easy in our lives. Blissfully Domestic will be launching its new site on Monday! The new site will be broken down into several channels, and I'll be writing for the Home and Garden channel on the topics like homekeeping and decorating.
I am beyond thrilled with my new endeavors and think I've made great strides in getting my writing career off the ground. Thank you to everyone who's provided me with such wonderful opportunties, advice, encouragement, and support! I'm feeling very good about the new direction my life is taking.
Wow! You're busy! Congrats on all the great writing gigs. -Julia
