PAID REVIEWS
If you would like to submit a product for review you are welcome to do so. If your product, book or other item is selected for publication it will be archived on HC indefinitely and at the discretion of HC. With the post HC will include your contact information for purchasing. If you want a guaranteed review then there is a $55 fee that includes mentions on Twitter and Fac ebook.

I am always happy to review products/services that could benefit the family, especially tourist places and restaurants. I am also interested in anything related to cooking, home decor, fashion, books, home education products (science & history kits and the like), and I’m all about the products that moms use everyday and especially the latest appliances and technology! Contact me and let’s work something out.

Please consider the following guidelines before submitting products for review:

I cannot guarantee that every product will be reviewed and published unless you pay the $55 fee or we have come to an alternate agreement.
I regret that we will not be able to return any items submitted for review. Additionally, I cannot guarantee that items used in a review will be repackaged for a reader giveaway. Should you desire to provide me with additional products for a giveaway then I will be happy to host that at our site for you when your review is published. You are responsible for mailing the products to the winner. Please do not mail giveaway items to me.
Generally, items submitted for review are ready for publication within 4-6 weeks; however, some items may take up to months of faithful use for an accurate and helpful review. Please note that items I specifically request for review may be published sooner, as they are generally part of a special feature I am working on for upcoming articles. I do make exceptions for most blog tours but please give me ample time to read the material.

Things of note:
Though I will consider all offers, I get especially excited about advertising for or reviewing products, services, and destinations in the south. I am also a fan of homemade and/or handmade products.

To request a media kit discussing advertising options in depth, please send me an e-mail.
