Lotus Carroll’s Summary

I've been writing all my life, mostly for fun, sometimes to achieve a goal (academia).


Nowadays I author a personal website with daily posts: SarcasticMom.Com It is mostly humorous, with a good dash of angry ranting and sometimes introspection that's a little sniffley.

I also review products/services/businesses and host giveaways at "Who Doesn't Like Free?" - a review site from the perspective of a Mom/Wife/Woman.

Of a more professional nature, I am the Editor of the Photography Column (Photo Bliss) at the Blissfully Domestic Online Magazine, where I also contribute my writing occasionally.

When I have time, I contribute to Deep South Moms Blog and the From the Mouths of Babes Column at Quirkee.com.

And sometimes I let my toddler out of of the closet and actually spend time with him.

But no, I don't sleep.
