A quick apology…

Just wanted to put this note out to readers and visitors who might be wondering why it’s been so long since I’ve posted anything around here.

In three words: I’ve been busy.

It’s funny, because I’m always telling my clients that it’s important to blog on a regular basis – at least 3-5 times a week, every week. Yet here I am not practicing what I’m preaching!

I’m actually working hard on trying to develop a better “routine” – it’s something that as a business owner wearing a thousand hats, I’ve had trouble with quite a bit. Add to that, I’m mostly doing things all on my own plus that I work from home (which in and of itself is known to prove troublesome at times for most people) and I’ve got a list of excuses a mile long.

Anyway, I just wanted to update and let you all know about the projects I’ve recently completed and those I’m working on currently:

America The Lost – A project by my friend James Pickett. I can’t reveal any more than the fact that his tagline for the site is “Inspiration is not lost.” Right now, you can go and sign up to be notified of the launch via email.

Shoot. Edit. Publish. – Another project by James, as he’s a professional photographer. He’ll discuss photography (digital and traditional) and videography there. We’re planning on taking submissions from contributors as well and are planning on adding a forum. Again, this one has a form on the front right now, where you can enter your email address to be notified of the site’s launch.

The Saratoga Comedy Club – Right now, the site isn’t showing any changes, but the theme there now is an outdated one and it’s in dire need of a revamp, so that’s on the table as well.

Cookerati – A re-design is in the works for this blog project. Should be a great update from the also outdated look it has currently.

Luna Fabulous – This is a personal project of mine that’s been in dire need of attention and thus is receiving that. It’s about living a fabulous life, regardless of where you think you might be now.

Montréal On The Cheap – This is a great blog part of an “On The Cheap” network, featuring various cities across North America. The blogs are written by people who actually live in those cities, so they’re passing along “insider” information about how to live, work, and play in today’s economy.

I’m still working over at ProBlogger, and while Darren was away on vacation, I did some work over at Digital Photography School and TwiTip. I’m also working on a project for a local liquor store, which is an online wine store and wine blog (I’ll announce that link when the site’s completed.)

James and I were also working on getting some of his fine art photography prints framed and shipped off to a red carpet charity event in Las Vegas for an event called The Great Pit Ball. It’s put together by Brandon Bond, international tattoo artist and pit bull activist. The event will feature his documentary film, Viktory the Underdog and the whole thing serves to benefit animal rescue (more specifically pit bulls) and the Villalobos Rescue Center in Canyon Country, CA. Villalobos is the largest, no-kill Pit bull rescue center in the country. It’s a really cool project.

So there you have it… all the food on my plate right now! I promise I’m going to start working towards regular blog posts, though. Since Ginkgo Consulting has opened up services to include blog consulting (by phone or email) and so on, I want to offer up better tips here on the blog itself.

Thanks for your patience!
