She Got Me Blogging

I’ve lured her to the dark side. My spouse Helen, whom some of you know from our “She Got Me Pregnant” vlogs, has started blogging.

It all began when she launched a side business, Affine Financial Services, to do tax preparation and financial planning. She started putting up regular tips on her Web site, decided it was fun, and began her descent down the slippery slope into full-scale bloggerdom.

Starting today, she’s also going to be a contributing writer for Queercents, a personal finance group blog for the LGBT community. It’s definitely a site you should check out, if you haven’t already.

Helen’s focus for Queercents will be on financial planning for queers, our families, and friends, as well as advice to people starting small businesses. Her own site is for a more general audience, with plenty that both LGBT and non-LGBT folks may find useful.

Her first post for Queercents is Marriage Penalty: same-sex couples still ahead at tax time.

Go show her some love, leave a few comments, and welcome her to the blogosphere. (It’s also our 16th anniversary this week, and I figure nothing says “I love you” like driving traffic to her posts.)
