For some time now, I’ve been throwing around the idea of starting my own media company. But how much would it take (more $100 bills than would fit in my Airstream Trailer- I’ve got a huge fettish for vintage trailers by the way). So, I heard about this blog thing at a recent publishing seminar that I attended. I sorta, kinda knew what they were, but what caught my attention was the word “free”. I really would have preffered to have started a 120 page glossy magazine with beautiful photos and an endless Travel and Entertainment credit card to use, but since I have $0 after buying formula and diapers I decided to go with “free”. This begins my stab at blogging. I’m not a good writer, and I would be exaggerating if I said I was a “so so” photographer.
What are my plans for this blog? To shed a little light on a little group of people that I admire, and who get very little attention … the Cowgirl. This group of women are made up of the things that are missing in this country today. There are many defintions of a cowgirl, and I’m not going to give you mine, but I am going to bring visuals and first hand experiences of women who are REAL COWGIRLS. I want to show who they are, what makes up there day, and the importance of their stories to women in every corner of this country. These unassuming women can provide all of us some direction in our own lives.
Along the way, I want to have some fun by sharing with you some of my favorite stuff.
Here’s one of them for starters:
I am moved by your “plans” section. I especially liked the sentence…”This group of women are made up of the things that are missing in this country.” Nice.
