… and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.
Lately, I’ve been asked to speak and attend a lot of fun, blogging-related events, and I’ve got to say, I’m enjoying it quite a bit.
This past Tuesday, Philadelphia’s Public Relations Association invited me to have a little chat with their members here in Philly. The turnout was outstanding, over 100 people showed. Lots of love to my wonderful coworkers who came along. You can spot them smack in the middle. Mary, I do believe you’re smiling at the camera.
Other Philly bloggers in attendance included Hughe of Philly Chit Chat, Dan Gross of Philly.com, D-Mac from the Philadelphia Weekly, and Alan Tu from WHYY. We had fun. Hughe has some additional pics on his post about the event.
Earlier in the month, I spoke at Saint Joseph’s University, and come June, I’ll be attending Blogging While Brown, a diversity summit in Chicago. Chicago!
All of these talks! My CV is looking better and better.

I hope my girlfriend didn’t expect anything less.
Purchased this cute gem off of Etsy. It’s hand-stitched and in a lovely frame. There’s just something about handmade gifts that makes them extra special, considering only one of these exists.
Kudos to crafter Isilian, who in knits in her free time… when she isn’t busy studying aerospace engineering. Neat!


My debut novel comes out this Fall. You'll be able to download free audiobook podcasts
