A Little Vacation Time

It is time for me to take a little vacation from my busy life. It is time for some down time. It's has been two years of non-stop activity and go-go-go and it is time, so in the month of Sept, I am taking the month off from blogging. I am focusing on family and creating again. I will resume with my blogging activities again in October.

Until then... keep creating.

My Aha Moment

It turns out that more than just friends and family read my blog.

Last month I was asked to participate in filming a video for Mutual of Omaha's "Aha Moment" ad campaign. The producer emailed me saying that she was reading my blog and said that she thought that I might have an "Aha Moment" to share and asked if I would be interested. A few weeks later I met with the producer and film crew and sat down for 20 minute chat about my aha moment. The rest is history.

It was a lot of fun and I got to keep a souvenir from the whole the event. After watching the video, you can read the entire story on my About page and see the image that I called "Enlightenment".

Many people ask me about where my creative drive comes from. This story is the source of that drive.

Many people also ask me why they should have a blog. Well, you never know what opportunities might open for you.
