      Miss Britt - A Blogger With Balls

      Posted by Orato

      I've been writing since I could hold a crayon to paper. Seriously. I've always written. When I was in high school my bedroom walls were lined with prose and poems that I secretly wanted my parents to read... and desperately hoped that they wouldn't. I've just always written. I must be doing something right, because I've been nominated for the Bloggers Choice Awards in two categories: Hottest Mommy Blogger and the Blogitzer.
