I’ve been feeling very productive and inspired lately. I just got my first freelance job with a PR company here in town, Cultivate PR. I’m really excited to work with them. My first project will be a press kit for a new club in town called Kingdom. If this one goes well, there will be an opportunity for me to do a couple other press kits for them in the coming weeks. This opportunity is great for me because it forced me to draw up a freelance contract and think about freelance pricing.They may even let me do some guest blogging, which would be amazing!
Also, I just launched a food blog with my friend and neighbor Sarah. I mentioned this before but check it out at www.onegreentable.com. My days are spent thinking about fun ideas for blog posts. It keeps me creative and I now have a tangible excuse for purchasing a better camera. My camera purchase will be funded by my freelance work.
The Cotton Row blog has turned into a more personal blog, documenting my endeavors to find creative outlets. I still have a corresponding Etsy store for Cotton Row, check it out if you are in need of some vintage threads. Throughout this process of trying a little bit of everything, I have made an effort to start drawing more and taking more photos. Hopefully, I will be able to host some of those creations on this blog. The embroidered type post inspired me to draw letters again (see below). I’m secretly a typo-phile. I have a strong love for letters. After talking with a friend from back when, I decided on the phrase “Let’s rewind”. No matter how bright the future looks, nostalgia gets the best of me sometimes.
Let me know your feedback on the direction of the blog. Do you have a favorite post?
