So, for the ppl who may be traipsing over from a cybermummy meet and greet – hi!
This is me:
The pirate and the rainbox girl, known respectively on here as Small and Big won’t be attending. The baby, smallest-of-all or soa for short, will.
Name: Jax.
Blog: here. at liveotherwise, called Making it up.
Twitter ID: @liveotherwise
FB – liveotherwise page
Height: 5ft 4
Hair: Yes. Though it will be probably be twisted up into a bun to stop the baby from swinging off it, so saying it’s long and brown won’t help identification.
Eyes: Green. May be behind glasses as I’m horrendously short sighted, but I might try to have the lenses sorted by then.
Why do I want to go to Cybermummy? Well, I’ve been blogging for over 7 years. I started as it was a way of keeping in touch with my more remote friends – our home educating lifestyle has meant we have friends all around the country that we don’t see irl nearly as often as we’d like. Many of them blog (you can find them through the blogring at the top left) and we keep in touch this way, so when we do meet, it’s really easy to pick up where we left off.
I blog here for me, for the kids, for my friends, and for my sanity. Sometimes I get political, sometimes philosophical. I don’t make money out of it, apart from the (sadly very occasional) Amazon voucher when ppl are kind enough to buy from Amazon via my affiliate links.
But I’d like to learn about making money from blogging or that sort of thing – at home with three home educated kids it’s a career I can fit around their lives and education, so it would suit us well.
And that’s my reasoning. Looking forward to meeting some of you irl very soon.
