In continuing our conversation from last week – after launching an ad, you’ll receive an email letting you know it was submitted, including a note that the review process is usually completed within twenty-four hours (though could take up to three days). I received an email four hours later letting me know it was reviewedContinue reading “@m@zon @ds – part two”

@m@zon @ds – part one
At the recommendation of a friend, I signed up for a five day ad challenge. This particular challenge has six pre-recorded videos, some “homework” (I use the quotation marks because it’s really up to you if you do it or not, right?), and six live Q&A sessions. As with any free instruction, I was preparedContinue reading “@m@zon @ds – part one”
Green Bay Café Crawl: Part Two
Last week, I talked about five cafés in my city that I’ve been to before. For this week, I explored new places (four cafés, a tea house, and a spot I randomly stumbled onto). Crystal Coffee Café and Beanery*2625 Packerland DrMon – Fri 6 a.m. – 2 p.m.; Sat 7 a.m. – 1 p.m.; SunContinue reading “Green Bay Café Crawl: Part Two”
Green Bay Café Crawl: Part One
I’ve always loved a good coffee shop. It’s my vibe, I guess. I prefer a local shop, preferably with mismatched furniture, plates, and mugs. Local art on the walls. A place where you can sit and study or read or write for hours. My first love from these experiences was and will always be chaiContinue reading “Green Bay Café Crawl: Part One”
Green Bay Mural Crawl
For a lot of people who don’t live in this city, when they hear our name, they probably tend to think football. If you asked them what else we might have, chances are that artists are low on that list, if they’re mentioned at all. However, we have a thriving artist community here – weContinue reading “Green Bay Mural Crawl”
Green Bay Bookstore Crawl
I have a rather long commute to work, and when people ask me why I don’t move to the city where I work, I joke that I could never live in a city that can’t sustain a bookstore. Honestly, it’s half a joke. (The other not-so-jokey part is how expensive said city is, especially sinceContinue reading “Green Bay Bookstore Crawl”
Green Bay – The Best City to Live In
Earlier this year, U.S. News & World Report voted Green Bay, WI, #1 Best Place to Live. Now, even as someone who has returned to this city over and over (I’ve moved here three times, only leaving out of necessity), I have to admit I was a bit surprised to hear this. I mean, haveContinue reading “Green Bay – The Best City to Live In”
Killing Friends is Never Easy
I am, of course, referring to on paper. As part of my Kickstarter for Wherever Would I Be, there was an add on for having a character named after them in my next book. I probably should have thought that through better given that said next book is a murder mystery. [strained smile] The detectivesContinue reading “Killing Friends is Never Easy”
Films to Be Buried With, Part Two
Here are the answers to the second six questions Goldstein asks on his podcast. To read the first six, see last week’s post. What is the sexiest film? — Unfaithful with Diane Lane, Richard Gere, and Olivier Martinez. I had no idea what the film was about going into it – I just adored RichardContinue reading “Films to Be Buried With, Part Two”
Films to Be Buried With, Part One
As I wrote about in my last post, I started listening to Films to Be Buried With a few months ago, which is Brett Goldstein’s podcast. I really enjoy listening – it doesn’t matter if I have any idea who the guest is or not. The notion of a conversation about life through film isContinue reading “Films to Be Buried With, Part One”
