Making a Living, Sharing and Learning

So, Judy, you’re a blogger, huh?
Yes, I’m a blogger. I started my BlakeneyBits blog in 2015. I don’t get paid for blogging, nor do I advertise on my blog. I don’t believe in advertising on my blog or making money from what I write there because I’d rather keep my integrity. What I write on my blog is strictly for fun, playing with ideas, as well as exploring the intersection of education, technology, and instructional coaching. I do not receive payment for any of the blogs I write.
DISCLOSURES
Business ties: Not sure I have any. My husband is an attorney at a small law firm, Gordee, Nowicki, & Blakeney, LLC
Media ties: I don’t have any particular media ties.
Memberships/Affiliations: I belong to the following organizations:
Stocks: I do own stocks, however, my husband manages our stock portiolio, not me
Religion: Since I may write about spiritual matters, if only to highlight how much I fall short, I’ll confess that I’m a Christian who attends church (Saddleback Church) as often as I can in person, but attend online and digitally also.
Politics: In recent years, I’ve found myself voting Republican. There are a lot of issues, but I’m not going to jump into those now. If you have a question, drop me an email and maybe I’ll formulate an opinion.
