According to the Boston Globe, blogging is a good way to promote your career. Apparently, a blog devoted to a specialized topic will get you noticed and lead to that high-paying consulting gig that you always wanted. You know, the one where you can spend four hours (five max) telecommuting each day and still earn enough for a down payment on that vacation home in Cabo. I’m not sure how that nugget of advice applies to me. This blog takes such a scattershot approach that I don’t stand out in any one particular area. Oh, sure, I’m probably the most engaging writer on disability policy issues that you’ll ever meet, but I doubt that’s going to get me a raise from the Commissioner of Human Services. Of course, I don’t blog in hopes of monetary reward. As I’ve said before, this is a labor of love for me.
We’ll get into my compulsive attention-seeking habits some other time.
