Reviews:

Sometimes I blog about stuff that helps journalists. I pay for all the products I review on my blog. To help defray those costs, I use Google ads and Amazon's affiliate advertising program, which provides a way for sites to earn commissions by linking to Amazon.com. I'll never link to stuff I don't like or try to make you buy something that sucks. These reviews are my honest opinions. Thanks for reading.
