I was at a blogging conference this past weekend here in San Jose (which is where my Curvy Girl retail store is located) called Blogher. ( #blogher or their other hashtag #blogher14 )
One of the speakers, The Blogess, said something that hit me right between the eyes.
Help us to fund our “Curvy Girl Cover Girl” project. You might notice that some of the “models” on our website are women that are not professional models.
Who would have thought that at a blogging convention, I would find a booth where I could find stickers and fun stuff telling the world that “I AM ENOUGH” and “I AM AWESOME!” Apparently, I need to get out of the store more often and attend blogging conventions.
I can’t believe we are over 102,000 “fans” or likers / followers on Facebook. To celebrate all of your love and support, we are going to give away one of our best selling corsets.
As I posted on my FB page, today, this woman Linda Kelsey wins the “Asshole of the Year” award. I am NOT linking to her hate filled article on the “Daily Mail Online” article, because I do not want to give them any more traffic and the article is filled with so much vitriol and just totally ignorant comments about some “fatties” as she calls them.
