Hey there! 🙂 I’m Wendy Piersall (now Wendy Faith), and I’ve been blogging since 2006. I’ve started and sold several blogs, written a couple of books, and have illustrated or art directed over 25 books, two of which have been bestsellers: Coloring Flower Mandalas and The Drawing Book for Kids.
Here are links to some awesome press mentions that I still sometimes can’t believe are about me. The links go so far back that most of them are dead, but I’ve been on the Today Show, multiple local TV interviews, and have been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Huff Post, Inc. Magazine, and spoke at many blogging conferences back in the day.
A few things about me and my companies:
Woo! Jr. Kids Activities is the blog that defined my publishing career. It launched a multiple six-figure business that employed 4 people + 20+ freelancers at its peak, and evolved into the Wendybird Press publishing imprint. I sold that company in 2021 in a deeply traumatic transaction that came to define the next era of my career: trauma-informed business coaching (because wow, once I understood trauma, everything changed).
In 2011, I published Mom Blogging for Dummies with Wiley Publishing. It still hasn’t sunk in that I can say, “I wrote THE book on mom blogging”.
I wrote in the past for Entrepreneur.com. I love saying that.
I’ve been featured in the following books:
MOM, Incorporated: A Guide to Business + Baby
ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income
Professional Blogging for Dummies
Twitter Marketing: An Hour a Day
