I swear I don't just start new things for the heck of it. If you know me, you know that I follow through with everything I sign on to, even if it means pushing a little too hard to get all my work done.
So the new task added today is another blog. Yes, this is what, number 4? If you count this new one, this Off Center, the Winger, and ExploreDance (which i don't consider a blog but it is online). BUT I am quite happy to be starting this one.
It's over on DancerUniverse.com which I mentioned a few weeks ago. The site is hosted by Dancer Magazine, and after doing an article for them recently (which actually spoke about their blog/network/website a bit) they asked if I'd maybe be a featured blogger.
I'm really glad there's an outlet (many in fact) for me to write so much about my love of dance! None of this existed just a short time ago, and now blogs and voices in dance are in abundance. This is good good good.
Anyway, check out my blog/profile over there if you want, and read up on some of their other contributors...interesting people from all walks of the dance world. Or create a profile and contribute yourself :)

articles out
Still not exactly in a blogging mood tonight, but news of the day is that both of my most recent articles were printed this week.
As I mentioned yesterday, movmnt is out with my piece on injuries (ironic now because my foot is getting worse...). Today I got an early copy of Dancer magazine with my article on dance studios using the internet for marketing etc.
I like seeing my name in print :) Don't get me wrong, blogging and writing for the internet is something I enjoy also, but there's something so official about print...especially magazines.
Have I mentioned lately that my grad school courses in magazine publishing are keeping me busy? I never really talk about that aspect of my life, but it's definitely there and keeping my occupied outside of ballet!
Anyways this is another kind of random, unimportant post...sorry haha. Have a good weekend all...and go buy those magazines if you get a chance. Other stuff in both publications are really interesting to read, too!

turning a new page
After finishing college yesterday I took most of today just to relax and let it all sink in. I needed a break since I definitely overworked myself a bit the last few months (perhaps that's an understatement).
Anyways, the news of today was that I got an email from DANCER magazine asking for article contributions for their March issue. I guess they came across my website and asked if I'd be interested, so I pitched some ideas and now have an article due for them next week. Yay! More writing opportunities are good good good.
Speaking of my website, perhaps the most significant part of graduating yesterday was updating all of my bio and everything to say that I have my BA in Communications rather than simply "pursuing" it. Haha! It's cool when it's finally in writing.
Also of interest on my website is that I added a page to include some of the digital pictures I've taken. I've always loved taking pictures and though I would indeed like to learn more of the technical parts of photography in the future, it's mostly just a hobby for now. But I thought it might be nice to display a few of my favorites, so go check 'em out here.
I have a busy weekend ahead with various graduation celebration activities...and the blogger meetup at NYCB!
