Just a Quick Update
Things are quite busy, but I just had to take the time to give a quick update. Revising The Write Design website. It is giving me the flux, but it will be done REAL soon. I have come up with at least three different ways to profit from teaching blogging. Now, it’s time to plan…
Newest Assignment: Foodie for Gapers Block
I signed up to write food reviews for Gapers Block because it appeared to be the easiest topic for me at the time. You would think that was a good thing, right? I mean, who would turn down the opportunity to possibly eat for free for about an hour of writing? So, I have two…
Writing & Researching Interns Needed for Roller Skating Project
I am a roller skating entrepreneur and journalist seeking 2-3 interns to help conduct research on Chicago’s roller skating history.

I was honored as the Brown Chick of the Day by Zondra Hughes, one of the founders of Six Brown Chicks, a new site real dedicated to real talk about life, love and letting go of the drama.
Marcie’s RandomThoughts

Answer to My Question: Where Are the Black People in Roller Skating?
The Universe sent a resource to answer my question: Where are the Black People in Roller Skating? During an interview with someone for my roller skating book, the statement was made that roller skating has always been a white sport. But, it has take over black communities. I get that. At some point throughout history,…
