Fashion, food, travel—you name it, bloggers are cashing in. On some levels I was at the right place at the right time—I got into blogging early (in 2002 … although I felt I was late to it at the time) and have been fortunate enough to have started blogs at opportune times on the topics I write about. This is simply not true.
