A gig – Want to read?

As you all know… I have a business, Vineyard Virtual Services. I am a Virtual Assistant who caters to freelance writers and small business owners. As part of that, I also freelance write/ghostwrite. I usually can’t share that stuff, as it’s not my own byline.

I got interviewed!

I got interviewed about blogging over at Commitment. Won’t you take a look?

Help from my Friends

I know several of my online and offline friends deal with kids who have special needs. I’m one of them. I’m writing an article for one of my clients, and I would love to hear your stories on the fiscal impact it’s made on your family. State paid? Medical Insurance? District paid? Out of pocket? [...]

The Juggle

A Break?

There’s got to be a break in here somewhere, right?

Monday Catch All

Just the Monday Catch Up on my other gigs:
I did a book review on a book called Emergency by Neil Strauss.
The Capri-Sun $250 gift card giveaway is still going strong until 7/8.

Pins and Needles

Oy. Poe is up for a job. This is GOOD. He had a pre-interview over the phone. Went well. Went in for an actual interview. Went great. Now they’ve asked for a portfolio – anything that can be sent at all? You see Poe had his portfolio [...]

Monday Updates

So, it’s Monday, which means it’s time to update you on ME around the web.
You already know about this one. But I’m mentioning it anyway because HELLO! I was on CNN.
Article up at Special Needs Bliss, Advocate – Enough Said. A bit of a rant, cleaned up for non-personal blogness.
Another article up at [...]
