There seem to be precious few female "A-List" bloggers, and the men all seem to emphasize how to make millions. While I want to make a living online, that doesn't mean I want to make a killing. I think I'll aim for the D List. Thanks, Kelly,

I would be happy to read more female pro-bloggers as they would likely have a different perspective and intuition on the matter. Most of the "advice" out there is fairly banal regurgitated stuff. I like your blog though. Keep up the great work! It is true that there are more balls in blogging than say other bits, and I’m not sure why balls are somehow authoritative.

The real question in my mind is how many so called pro bloggers are making enough money to live on. I suspect the number is smaller than people think.

I have about a half dozen articles in queue, and no time to work on them. They're all for technical publication. Each requires about a month of 1/2 time (at least) commitment. I may never finish them. Frankly, anyone who says "writing is this" or "writing is that" is too clueless to engage with. Smile and nod, smile and nod. If I had to limit myself to the kind of writing espoused by the blogoscenti (that's a hard "c" because I was born in Dixie, dammit) I would shoot myself. Or drive off a bridge. They just say that crap because it's all they know. Some of D. Rowse's newer articles are really good... because they are long and packed with information. They break all the rules. The irony, of course, is Darren being one of the propagators of said rules. Still avoiding my email, yesiam. @Kelly Diels, No, you’re not overthinking things.
