Goodbye Isabella

As many of you know, I got my start online a long, long, long time ago – last fall – on WhoIsIsabella.com. Recently the website’s owners have decided to move on. I can’t tell you how bummed I am because not only has Isabella been running my column on their beautiful site, but having a deadline every two weeks was awesome accountability for me! As it is, I have half a dozen half completed columns shoved in a notebook. Writing for Isabella gave the me confidence and the platform to apply for other [read: paying] writing work.

However, like the Isabella folks, it’s time for me to move on too. While I’m trying to figure out what direction the column should take and where it belongs [read: who is willing to pay me for it], I’ll be posting it here. But first I need to post all the old columns so I’m going to treat you to a season of repeats! In the next few weeks I’ll be putting everythign up here so you’ll have a chance to giggle again and share with your friends. Share, please!

Also, I know this blog is far from pretty. I am a writer. I am not clever with font and color and placing things around the page. Wish I were. Rest assured that I’m working on it, but all suggestions will be taken to heart. In other words, I need help!

PS – I am still the Parenting Columnist for HubPages and I’m always taking suggestions for topics there. Plus, in case you’re interested, this week I sold my first articles to an actual ink-and-paper regional called Southern Families so if you live in Alabama, Mississippi, or Louisiana, you can check me out in the Nov/Dec issue!
