An officemate.
4. About how many hours a week would you estimate you spend on your blog?
About 5 hours a day during weekdays, 3 hours on weekends. That’s spent surfing, coming up with topics, and writing. If I had a Bluetooth headset it would be easier and faster for me to update when out of the house.

Surfing other blogs, spotting trends.

Personal problems.
11. Do you have any sort of a publishing schedule in terms of day of week or topic?
Yes, I am organized that way.
