Welcome to the home of Scottish Mum and her blog. I am one of the growing band of bloggers. I am a mum and I blog. I am Scottish, so I am usually filed under Scottish Mummy Blogger.
Blogging about being a mummy is one of the least frequent things I do. Most of us are simply parents who happen to blog about a variety of things.
As a rule, we tend to be parenting blogs, or cooking blogs, or lifestyle blogs, or technology blogs, or even a mix of them all. On most “parenting” blogs, you will find a large and diverse range of topics being discussed.
The fact that we blog is what brings us together as a community. We Tweet, Facebook and Forum, where there is a large Internet community of bloggers who work and play together (did I mention the conferences).
I live in Aberdeen, Scotland. I write for a living these days and help other people with their copy writing, blogging and social media. I write poems, often doric poems but I am very shy about them, although if you dig deeply enough, you’ll find some that I pretend don’t exist.
I am a winner of Nanowrimo – which means I wrote a novel of 50,000 words in one month.
I have worked with many leading brands which has been absolutely fantastic, many of which are included on this blog. I also write for a large online network in the UK.
I occasionally write for the Yahoo Contributor Network in the UK, which requires contributors to be screened and approved.
Following my blog directly is easy to do, either by e-mail or RSS feed. I have over 5000 followers on Twitter, with networks through Instagram, PInterest, Facebook, Stumbleupon, LinkedIn, Google+ and more.
My blog is PR friendly, so please do send me a message if you have any questions.
I freelance for people who find it difficult to make up their own content, and give support and advice for social media and blogging, both here, and at Madly Social.
Feel free to use my contact page as it likes to work hard. I used to have my email address listed, but due to a large increase in spammers who use bots to harvest email addresses from websites, I have had to replace it with a contact form.
If you would like to feature on this blog, or have me do some writing for you, please contact me for my rates.
The last thing I would like to say, is that I hope you have enjoyed reading, and will come back to visit me again.
Regards
Lesley S Smith
