About hellomelissa.net

hellomelissa.net is a personal website for me, Melissa Price-Mitchell. I’ve maintained a website in some shape or form since 1999. I’ve been writing online about the interesting and not-so-interesting things in my life since 2000. Previous domain names this site ran under include geeksuperstar.org, searchingforhappy.net and searchingforhappy.vox.com (no hyperlinks included because all these sites are defunct).

I am open to writing and receiving guest posts. Contact me and we can work something out.

If you want to get a feel for who I am and how I write (and if you would enjoy it), you can visit my Noteworthy page. This page contains links to some of my favourite posts in 10+ years of writing on the site.

I don’t do sponsored/compensated posts or giveaways on hellomelissa.net at this time. Any review posts I’ve done are on items I’ve purchased and enjoyed using and wanted to pass along in a friend-to-friend way.

About me

I am a lot of things to a lot of people: wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend, employee and that woman you may have seen walking down the street somewhere. I live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada with my husband Sean, our daughter Flora, our cat Buckley and our dog Leia.

Now that blogs and “social media” are the cool things to do online, my friends and family actually read the site once in awhile. It makes me glad that I never decided to post under a pseudonym and rant about them, or write about things I wouldn’t want someone asking me about. My rule for posting is that if I’m not embarrassed for my mum to read it, it’s fair game for anyone else. There are lots of links to other sites I use and post at in the sidebar, but you can also access them by clicking on my About.me page: http://about.me/mpricemitchell.

In closing…

Welcome to hellomelissa.net. To cover my ass, here is a statement about the content you will find here:

I am more than my job and employment status, and I’m sure you are too. My content is my own, and does not necessarily reflect the opinions of any employer I have. The reverse also applies, but as long as neither party makes the other party look bad intentionally, I don’t think we’ll have any problems around here.
