... and so are the deadlines! Hard to believe, huh? I participated in a legal competition last weekend and met a friend I hadn't seen in several years. She mentioned that she, like me, is intending to write the June…

I've realized that, with five female bloggers, UpbeaT tends to lack in the athletics area of blog writing. Don't get me wrong, it's not that we can't write about sports - women can be great sports bloggers and, of course,…
