Years ago, my husband and I used to leave each other love notes in our Hollow Tree. Now we're happily married, with five kids; this blog is where I share the usually ridiculous, often sarcastic, sometimes aggravating, and occasionally even touching tales of our ventures into parenthood. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Advertising and Sponsorship
Hollow Tree Ventures has a growing readership of rabid, adoring fans (okay, maybe not "rabid" or "adoring," but they are loyal, funny, intelligent, and good-looking) through rss feeds, email subscriptions, Facebook, Pinterest, and the Twitter.

I am currently a stay-at-home mom, though I have also worked out in the Big Wide World in previous lives. I write primarily about my kids, my experiences as a wife and mama, and parenthood in general, but there's a smattering of random Whatever The Heck I Feel Like Talking About in here, too.

I've been featured places like BlogHer, In The Powder Room, Daily Buzz Moms, Studio30Plus, the Scary Mommy Society, and Ganz Parent Club. I'm a member of the Yahoo! Contributor Network, as well as a staff writer for CraftFail and Movable Media. I co-authored a book, I Just Want To Pee Alone, which became a #1 best seller on Amazon and iTunes within days of its release in March 2013. Check out my Around The Web page for more details on all the places I've been.

In addition to freelance writing, I also offer graphic design services and consulting sessions on design, blogging, and social media (see above). Please contact me for rates and more information!

I am PR friendly and am currently looking for sponsors and advertisers for my site, including businesses, Etsy shops, and bloggers. I am also willing to do reviews and giveaways for products that I feel are a good fit for my readership (sorry, that means no semi-automatic weapons or penis enlargement serums at this time). (Wait a sec, I might consider those, too. Lemme think about it.)

I big fat puffy heart love my sponsors, and because I do you'll be promoted on my sidebar, as well as on Twitter and Facebook. If you need help creating a sidebar button for your ad, just let me know and I'm happy to help!
