That doesn't mean there aren't days when I consider chucking it all, but then (and I've said this before) something really nice happens -- someone thanks you for a review; someone argues with you over an opinion, which is, yes, a great thing; someone enjoys an interview; an author you admire emails you; etc. -- and it's all worthwhile again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15089389.post-3670638393027537792007-04-04T12:57:00.000-04:002007-04-04T12:57:00.000-04:00My mom's boyfriend thinks that my blogging is a wa...My mom's boyfriend thinks that my blogging is a waste of my talents. I know that, coming from him, that's a compliment, but still, I think he wishes I got monetary compensation. Little does he know that I could easily be bought for a couple of freshly-baked rhubarb pies.Saints and Spinnershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733517166056974501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15089389.post-16240516295337918062007-04-04T12:43:00.000-04:002007-04-04T12:43:00.000-04:00Poor Robin :)Paid or not, Betsy, I'd still argue t...Poor Robin :)<BR/><BR/>Paid or not, Betsy, I'd still argue that a kidlit blog is a labor of love. <BR/><BR/>P.S.

The ClubMom bloggers are paid. And maintaining a blog is now a part of some folks' job requirements, so those people are compensated, too. <BR/><BR/>So far, however, neither Ronzoni nor Barrilla has offered to foot the bill for Chicken Spaghetti.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
