I also appreciate your refreshing take on the “moneymaking side” of blogging. I’ll admit that I’ve gotten a bit glassy-eyed at the notion that I, too, could possibly make money by writing about something I love. But I’m not investigating it in order to get rich quick, I’m investigating it as a way to do something I love and hope it can sustain me, at least partly. Fingers crossed… (but I’m not at the advertising phase yet, so I’m linking to my personal blog instead).
