It's like, Who DOESN'T have a blog no...Def. It's like, Who DOESN'T have a blog now-a-days. I don't think any of us (or at least the majority) started our blogs for financial purposes or 'for-profit'. I am not quitting school any time soon to pursue a career in writing reviews. It's rare for a book blog, or any other sort of blog, to make a substantial amount of 'profit'. And even then, said profit hardly covers overhead and expenditures.. this is , quiet literally: BALLS =D .. WTFckery indeed!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02204042949680975830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5155779105962796229.post-23567333091438948292010-08-27T20:35:20.907-04:002010-08-27T20:35:20.907-04:00Such a WTFckery.

I've personally bought a FEW *wink, maybe many* books to be reviewed on my blog. Plus you figure the shipping and handling on personal giveaways not sponsored by an author or publishing house.. It racks up.. and I am only a college student.. Loans are looming to kick my butt, I don't need the feds scouring for chances to take a piece of my pie (which could really be considered a cupcake)<br /><br />I am in agreement with ya, Steph!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02204042949680975830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5155779105962796229.post-4381627238791369002010-08-27T19:34:21.374-04:002010-08-27T19:34:21.374-04:00Let's hope this is called out for what it real...Let's hope this is called out for what it really is: complete nonsense. I love my blog like a child and it costs me money like a child! :) Profit?! What profit?<br /><br />I love blogging but $300 just to tell someone about a great book....let's hope it doesn't come to that.Stephanie @ Once Upon A Chapterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13668989877752439249noreply@blogger.com
