Use pseudonyms--how difficult if they insisted on the real names...I understand where you're coming from, it is a leap and you are putting yourself out there, but I think using anonymity can be a happy medium.Aliki2006https://www.blogger.com/profile/15763865834765963343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2845194771436706462.post-39521573006967065602009-11-30T19:38:35.604-06:002009-11-30T19:38:35.604-06:00I'm impressed that you know yourself this well...I'm impressed that you know yourself this well ... and before you put it out there. I'm of the same mind, actually. I guard that little bit of blog privacy even though it would be really easy to come out, and probably professionally.

I was so excited about you being the supreme blogger and was going to beg an introduction to Gerard Butler and Keira Knightly when they did their movie based off of your blogging road to fame. <br /><br />But I see that it is never to be. Could it really be that important to have everyone real name?

I was THAT worried about it.<br /><br />Now, I'm a SAHM and it's weird to "come out of the closet" and let people know my real name and stuff. I still haven't told anyone my husband's name. . .
