What I really hate is to see someone who normally writes a blog on some specific area, like finance or relationships, but normally writes for another audience and just marginally changes a few words and then throws the information back out there, thinking it's perfect for us too - blah - I want to hear from people who can tailor their expertise to Our experiences, and apply more than just lip service to Our perspective. And - yeah - stories from the women who have been through it all and made it work!

Something like looking forward and looking back when you're on either edge of your 20s. PS I'm always up for guestblogging! I will think of a good topic (am I really qualified? haha) tough question! what if 29 yr olds wrote about things they learned in their 20s, or alternately, 20 yr olds can write about goals for their 20s.
