Me (in Third Person)
Pauline M. Campos is wife to The Husband, mother to “Buttercup,” and has decided that it’s time to make peace with her cellulite after moving to the desert from Michigan where it’s always construction season.
She spent the first two years of her daughter’s life wishing the pregnancy weight off before getting serious, joining a gym, hiring a nutritionist, and jumping into social media full-force with her www.aspiringmama.com blog and her twitter accounts (@baby_fphat and @aspiringmama) because she has an almost OCD-like tendency to multi-task while working on her writing projects.
Pauline has always known she was going to be a writer and finally got tired of hearing The Husband ask when she was going to make him rich, so she finally stopped dreaming and started doing.
She got started in newspapers and served as city editor for a few local papers before hitting the big time at The Detroit News and freelancing for the Metro-Detroit based Metro Parent Magazine before taking a break after baby. She blogs weekly for www.bookieboo.ning.com, a fitness support site that has been featured in national publications such as Shape Magazine, and also serves as an editor for the site.
Pauline also has had blog posts featured on www.waitingfortheclick.com, www.rockonmommies, and www.workoutmommy.com.
I found your link on Jane Friedman’s Twitter page and followed the digital path to your blogs.
I am also writing a memoir and so your tweets caught my attention. I especially enjoyed the above line, “Pauline has always known she was going to be a writer and finally got tired of hearing The Husband ask when she was going to make him rich, so she finally stopped dreaming and started doing.”
My husband teases me with the same line, “When are you going to make me rich” and a variation, “I need a new truck, you know!” Thank you for brightening my writing day! I look forward to more.
JoDee! Nice to meet you and thank you for stopping by the blog. I especially appreciate the comment. Looking forward to seeing you again and good luck on your memoir.
Larissa and Golda, thank you for stopping by to read and for the comments. I really appreciate it!
Anyone that uses the word asshole in the title of their post is someone I want to meet, lol. I love your blog and you crack me up. I’ll be back.
