Blogger Case Study - Stephanie Klein


A third blogger found through The Guardian article is Stephanie Klein.

Stephanie Klein's blog allows her to 'create an online scrapbook of my life, complete with drawings, photos and my daily musings' or, rather, tell tawdry tales of dating nightmares, sexual encounters and bodily dysfunctions. Thousands of women tune in for daily accounts of her narcissistic husband and nightmarish mother-in-law and leave equally self-revealing comments transforming the pages into something of a group confessional. The blog has been so successful that Klein has penned a book, Straight Up and Dirty, and has featured in countless magazine and newspaper articles around the globe. Not bad for what Klein describes as 'angst online'.
Least likely to post 'Enough about me – what's your news?'
Stephanie's blog feature's a section called Relationships with subcategories such as "breakups and breakthroughs", "dating & mating" and "marriage". Her posts are generally question and answers, a reader asks her question and she answers it. This section of her blog hasn't been posted into in years and even then posts were scarce, so it isn't something she is still doing often, as posts now include recipes and fashion. However, this just represents the journey of her life and the stages, so it's necessarily a negative. Both "Family Matters" and "Friendships" have had more recent posts, suggesting this is where she is currently at in her life.
