Hello Friends,
It took a while, but I finally did it! I've launched my company's blogspot. I guess it took so long because life just seemed so hectic; I didn't believe that I'd have enough time to sit still and just write; something I really love to do. That is, not until I began blogging with some wonderful friends of mine several months back. You know, now I'm hooked.
So, I invite you to come back as often as you'd like to to follow my life as a PR Strategist, writer and aspiring author. You will not only share in my daily business life, but you will be a significnat part of my entertainment life as well. I have the exciting task of being a movie, music and literary reviewer and writer for GospelCity.com, the largest Gospel web portal in the world.
As well, I am a woman who is deeply in love with God, her husband and her family. There's no telling what you'll find when you come back.
