Are Diet Reality Shows a Good Thing?
If you ask someone what happened on Survivor, Big Brother, or American Idol the average person on the street can tell you every thing. If you ask those same people about the Biggest Loser I don’t think that you will get the same response.

Chocolate Siztaz Writing Contest - Press Release
As a blogger I will always have a soft spot for writers. There is nothing more cool than coming across writers and contests that are openly willing to feature full-figured stories. Such a contest is on the horizon. Check out the details below:
Chocolate Siztas, Sacramento’s premier hosts of programs and events for the full-figured community, has opened a call for submissions for its two upcoming anthologies.
1) Insatiable is an erotic anthology. Stories must prominently feature full-figured characters and themes. Stories should be between 2,500 and 3,500 words long and must not be strictly full of sex, but have a plot and real characted development. Work that disrespects the full figured will not be accepted.

Traditional media companies are full of journalists that are crying foul when a person sitting at home for little or no compensation gets the scoop on big stories before those that get paid to do the same thing can. For most bloggers its difficult enough being called a hack by reporters but what about us plus size bloggers?
