Girl Con Queso
1. When did you start blogging and why? I just started blogging last July.  I’d resisted starting one for a few years because, frankly, it seemed like too much of a commitment to me (and I’ve been known to walk 40 miles out of the way to avoid commitment).  However, over the last [...]

Chaos Theory authored by Sherry

Binkytown authored by Amy
Favorite post: My very favorite was My Name Is Not Julia- the writing prompt I did back in September for the blog exchange. It was spontaneous and I sat down and wrote freely, almost effortlessly, start to finish in a matter of minutes and I loved it. I wish writing always felt [...]

What’s your blogaversary? I was coming out of my fourth trimester in October of 2005 when I began blogging. I could not have done it any sooner. Only when three months had elapsed since the birth of my daughter could I even begin to navigate the fog of my new life in a [...]
