I was shocked at how much press I got for being a Craft War loser.  I guess besides sports in Indianapolis there isn’t much to talk about…ha!  I joke!  I was able to get three articles in our local newspapers over the course of that month which was really fun and opened up doors for local opportunities.

My Blog Story Part 13

Every January for the past couple of years I have written out my blogging story of the previous year.  Sometimes it is fun for you, my reader, to hear about all the things that go into blogging and all the ups and downs we experience.  So in similar fashion I am going to update you on blogging in 2012.  I will say blogging in 2012 was very profitable for me, and for that, I am extremely grateful and really feel selfish for any bit of complaining I do about blogging. I know I am a rare case who gets to turn this whole thing into a career, but it’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cryyyyy if I want to.  (Name that tune!) But it was also a year of huge changes in blogging and some of my most discouraging moments.
