Welcome to Friday Fragments*!
True Blood is back and I’m loving it. I actually got to write a recap of the first episode for MamásLatinas. I’ll be writing recaps there for the next couple of weeks and if they do well, I’ll get to write them the whole season.
Have I mentioned lately how much I love my job as a full-time staff writer at MamásLatinas? Well, I love it. I’m not gonna lie, it’s not easy to write 6 posts a day, but it’s a challenge I enjoy. I also enjoy having a steady source of income.
This coming week I get to go mingle and meet with a whole bunch of bloggers.
Disney is hosting a Social Media Moms On the Road Celebration in Berkeley and I’ll be there. I love meeting and mingling with other bloggers. It’s always a treat. Let me know if you’re going to be there so I can meet and mingle with you.
And now your Friday Fortune Cookie
(don’t forget to add “in bed” at the end, if you are so inclined):
Don’t ever be afraid to mingle.

Disney tapping into the blogging scene makes sense. I wonder how they view blogging vs. FB and twitter. I take this as good for blogging.
Any free movie passes in the Disney treat?
thanks for hosting FF – blog on

6 posts a day is a challenge! I can’t even manage 6 in a week!
It Feels Like Chaos says
That pregnancy belt is too funny! I’m going to tell my husband about it and I know what he’ll say, “Glad that thing wasn’t around when you were pregnant with our kids!” According to him, he’s already suffered through being there in the delivery room and wonders, “What happened to the good ole days when the dads got to wait outside?” These comments get him lots of dirty looks from me!

Sorry, this comment should have been on Lisleman’s Friday Fragments.

unknownmami says
Yay!!!
Lisa says
You have the awesomest job! Have fun at the Disney session, it just sounds so, so, awesome.
Cyndy Bush says
Bahaha, that fortune cookie works great with ‘in bed’ at the end!
Six posts per DAY?! Do you have a subject matter provided or do you just have to come up with something? I am impressed, I don’t think I could do it.
unknownmami says
I get assigned the first story for the day and then I pitch the rest. I have a reader set up that aggregates headlines of stuff that is trending or that I’m interested in and I go from there. I find that stories about strange things happening to penises or teachers acting crazy do well. Hahaha…

My first Frag with Unknown Mami! Enjoy your Disney event! 🙂
unknownmami says

Enjoy the Disney Day! Maybe they will come to Chicago? Six posts a day? I’m lucky to do six a month! Kudos to you, my friend! And what a wonderful gesture to take over for Mrs.4444! Eres magnifico!
Kathy says
Six posts in one day? Wow, that’s quite a challenge. Thanks for hosting FF!

Getting together with other bloggers is always fun.
6 posts a day is amazing. Amazing.
unknownmami says
I love meeting other bloggers in person. I can be pretty socially awkward, but once I get over myself I’m always glad for the face to face interaction.
After doing 6 posts a day now, I feel like I could enter the blogging Olympics.
NancyJinks says
That is lots of posting but you’re right, a steady income is great! I’m never afraid to mingle in bed……..I have to with a husband and two dogs. :). Have a great weekend!
tettelestai says
That is a whole lot of writing!!! Kudos to you for doing it! Not sure I could hang with that for an extended period of time. Have a great time at your meet and greet 🙂 Now THAT is something I could get into 🙂 Love meeting new people.
Pam says
So many bloggers, so little time. It’s nice to be able to get together with a bunch all at once!
Nita says
Your job sounds like a lot of fun, but a lot of work as well. It is nice to see someone earning a living while doing work they love. It gives the rest of us writers and artists hope. 😀
Laurie Matherne says
I liked True Blood when I watched it a few times. Then it got too dark for me, just like that. The truth is, too, it is filmed near a town in Louisiana that I know very well.
ljsreveries says
How wonderful to be able to make money doing something you love!
I haven’t watched True Blood ever, but I’ll have to check out an episode.
Thanks for hosting!
Mrs4444 says
I’m so happy that you’re happy in your writing job! Have fun at your meet-up 🙂
Thanks for hosting!
