New on my Kids Activities Network
About Me
I'm Wendy Piersall and I've been making a living as a blogger since 2006. Though for the first few years "making a living" was a real relative term. I started and sold the Sparkplugging blog network, and now I run a new network of kids activities websites called Woo! Jr.
Momsational is my new 'blogging home' where I get to chat about whatever the heck I want. That means you'll find me talking about internet advertising strategy, Photoshop tricks and my latest Etsy find - probably all in the same breath.

Editorial Policy: My reputation has and always will be one of integrity on the web. If I am ever compensated in any way shape or form for content, you will know. But that doesn't happen too often, as I turn down paid reviews, sponsorships and goodies daily. My rule of thumb is that I take compensation only for things I would be willing to write about for free. And since I'm a pretty lazy writer, it would have to be really kick ass to be interesting enough to give it blog space!
