List of shit I can’t do

I was watching a comedian/magician show where he purposefully messed up a trick so he could flick it aside and say, “I’ll have to add that to the list of shit I can’t do. Look, it’s a long list.” And a scroll dropped down from the ceiling. That cracked me up. And then I got to thinking. Oh yeah, I’m old enough to have that list too. I had...

Tweet Toolbox: The difference between Content & Promo Tweeting

We have all seen talk around the web involving content tweeting and promo tweeting. Many of us are on Triberr together and do a ton of promo tweeting, in fact we do to much if we are also not talking to friends or just posting content tweets to balance it out.

Things I Learned from the Blogging from A-Z Challenge

Ziggy Stardust was the perfect way to end the A-Z Challenge This year was the first time I had taken part in the Blogging from A-Z Challenge. Mrs B mentioned it to me one day and suggested it would be a great event to be a part of. I was inclined to agree but writing 26 posts across April and following the letters of the alphabet left me wondering whether I should have a theme...

@ThatKevinSmith Every Indie Artist Must Watch This

Why? Because in the last part of the film he makes some incredible, life-affirming points to Indie Artists no matter what your flavor. I’m paraphrasing these ‘quotes’ because I don’t have the movie playing while I’m writing this post - 1) I have a right to my ‘artsy’ self-expression. 2) If we’re all going to die screaming...
