There are only a couple obvious career moves open to someone whose blog starts attracting media attention. Some get book deals, but Erin Wotherspoon, the dating-scene mercenary we first met back in October, is apparently taking the road trod by other cultural luminaries, like Honey Boo Boo: reality TV.

Wotherspoon, who rose to semi-fame after self-publicizing her attempt to date her way through dinner at a long list of pricey Toronto restaurants, told the Sun that she expects to sign a deal with Los Angeles-based Relativity Media—a company known for other fine reality-TV projects (Gigolos, Police Women of Broward County). The as-yet-untitled show would take place in the States. “The concept still needs to be discussed [pending] signing the contract,” Wotherspoon told the Sun, “which I still need to do.”
