Questionably Fabulous

I started writing my book today.  It feels great.

It doesn’t really count cause it isn’t like I wrote something, submitted it and it was published. But my name is there in the byline and my website is noted there too. And it is published in the daily paper. And it will publish a total of four times… so whatevs, I’m psyched!

It’s the Nuevo Mexico piece… If you zoom in real close you can see my name… I was on page A2 bitches!The background is this… An advertiser wanted to have his ad read like a restaurant review. So I wrote him one. And he thought it should look like someone wrote it so I put my name on it… and my website… So what if it is not my writing style or if I don’t necessarily want to write restaurant reviews forever. Side note – I actually think eating for a living and writing about the food would be hella fun but I digress… The point is that people might see this and log on to the website and then fall madly in love with my writing… MAYBE.

I appreciate the female form. I think straight women, gay men, and certainly the straight men and lesbians will all agree that a woman’s body is just simply beautiful. That being said, I may be in the minority when saying that less is not necessarily more. Sometimes MORE is more. As is more clothing can be more sexy. Am I alone?

Last week I went to San Luis Obispo’s Native Lounge for the fourth week of BOTS – Battle of the Salons – where Shannon McMillan and her husband Eric impressed us once again with their photography of hair in its purest artistic form – done up and sprayed to death. (Obvi I was there, where the else would I be on a Wednesday night in SLO-Town?)

Ok, so maybe “published” is a bit overzealous but I’m freaking over the moon about this. And yes, once you read the blog you’ll discover that I know these people and from that you can prolly figure out that they aren’t paying me – but I’m on my way people! LOL

I think I have found my inner fabulous!!!

In my desprite attempt to be a professional blogger (pause for laughter) I am trying to get as many new people to read my shizit…  And I’ve found that (deep breath, ready to admit it) twittering totally gets some click throughs.  I know, I’m lame.  So, can you all join together with your mouse and [...]

I haven’t written in a while and part of me feels like apologizing to my readers.  And then I realize, wait, I don’t have that many readers, the ones I do have are all family members and friends and quite frankly they don’t give a sheista if I write or not…  so I guess I [...]

I just read two of the weirdest blog entries ever.  Ok, I exaggerate.  The blogs were not weird – the tale was.    Help the fact that these two (Part 1 and Part 2) entries on one of my favorite sites (www.selfabsorbed.me) are titled “Faking It” and that I, of course, needed to read it.  [...]

I want to apologize for not writing at all in several weeks… almost months.  And I don’t mean to insinuate that I’m apologizing to you, the reader, because truthfully I owe it to myself.    When I started this blog it was for ME.  I wrote on my MySpace page to get stuff out of [...]

The other day I went to a seminar for writers on social networking.  A wonderful blogger turned author who is about to be published was speaking – www.mousewords.net in case you want to read her stuff.  She said that her newest favorite quote was one she found on the package of a Dove Bar of [...]

… is not like the other, one of these things does not belong… I went to a writers group in SLO last night – I was so terrified that apparently while introducing myself I was flapping my arms at my side – the leader of the group actually asked me, after I was done, if [...]
