About my over-caffeinated ramblings

Welcome to Latte Lindsay, the place that is filled with over-caffeinated ramblings from the edge of insanity. Covering everything from movies, to philosophy to shilling the latest products for anybody and everybody, because we’ve all gotta eat, right? It doesn’t matter if you want to sit on the sidelines and spectate or get stuck in, we welcome all, except you at the back, not you, you! You look a bit shifty.

Latte Lindsay || I tried something with a beauty routine and discovered something interesting

I started this writing stuff back when I was a little munchkin. I had a typewriter and a dream….and then I grew up and ended up doing the usual boring grown-up stuff. But a couple of years ago I decided that it was now or never. Since then I have been featured all across the internet! From the local paper, The Belfast Telegraph, to Soul and Spirit magazine. I even write books that will eventually get published. When I’m not here, I’m over on my other site, Crime Uncovered or studying to be a “proper writer”. One day I hope to find the real identity of Jack the Ripper and who really ate all the pies.  My passions include reading, trying out new products, and being a complete geek. But I only get time to do these things when I am done wrangling my four kids.

Growing up

I grew up just outside of Belfast during the end of The Troubles, a difficult time in Northern Ireland’s history. During this time, career options were very limited, and people didn’t dream of becoming space explorers or pop stars. When I was around 6 or 7 years old, the school choir teacher had to cover our class. While she was trying to get the day in, she asked each member of the class what we wanted to be when we grew up. Most of my classmates answered with “firemen”, “hairdressers”, or “working in a shop”. I knew back then that I wanted to be a writer, but according to the school choir teacher, that was a “stupid idea” and “you’ll never get anywhere with ideas like that”. I was left feeling ashamed and I never spoke about wanting to be a writer again.

Teenage years

My teenage years were not my finest work. I was a bit of an idiot, getting into trouble and making bad life choices.

I run several affiliate schemes here on the site including Get Blogged, Lyrical Host, and Amazon so if you choose to click on the links and buy something then the site receives a commission to keep me in cheap coffee and expensive shoes. All of the reviews here are honest so if it says I like it, I like it. I do sponsored posts but my opinions cannot be bought by companies. All of the opinions here are my own and I refuse to change them for the sake of selling out. Mmmkay? Because I’m an Amazon Affiliate, I also have several wishlists on there for stuff that I would like to hoard.

  1. Hi
    there!

    I
    came across your site and I believe it would be a great fit for our digital
    content partnership opportunity! I’m a Publishing Coordinator at Logical
    Position, a full-service digital marketing agency and we have developed a
    no-cost publishing program that focuses on independent publishers and their
    digital needs.

    As
    part of our publishing partnership, our in-house team of professional writers
    would supply you with well-researched, relevant, and non-advertorial content
    that will include a contextual hyperlink to a client’s website. The content
    that we provide would be free, ongoing, tailored to your publication’s needs,
    and geared towards driving traffic to your website.

    In
    navigating the website, I think our content would be a great source of quick,
    digestible reads for your audience. Our articles have also been an excellent
    source of supplemental content in a time where things may be a little busier
    than normal due to current events.

    I’d
    love to talk with you about the mutual benefits of our no-cost partnership.
    Here is a link to my calendar, https://calendly.com/dianne-pajo/15min
    if you’d like to schedule a time for me to reach out.

    I
    look forward to hearing from you!

    Kind
    Regards,
