The Cobbler’s Children Have No Shoes

And the blogger’s website/blog has no new posts. Sad, eh?

Well, give me a break, people. I’ve been busy writing copy and managing social media for some very active clients! The summer has flown by, and I loved (nearly) every minute of it. (Could’ve done without the insane heat and humidity, but that’s what AC is for, right?)

Here are some of the projects I’ve been excited about lately:

• Managing social media for Mom Corps, including the corporate blog, Twitter account, Facebook page and LinkedIn group
• Managing the Official Sponsor community for Prilosec OTC (via my friends at Bridge Worldwide,) including Twitter account, Facebook page and consumer email inquiries
• Launching a new blog for local records management company BIS, Just for the Records
• Creating marketing materials and cooking up new custom card-creation services for a local SendOutCards distributor, via marketing coach Andrea Dale
• Writing copy for a popular (and quite delicious) juice brand, via my friends at HyperQuake
• Contributing to ING Direct’s We, the Savers blog about my ongoing efforts to be more savings-oriented

Plus, I’ve been contributing (when I can) to Family Friendly Cincinnati and working on a big reimagining of Working Moms Against Guilt. Both blogs recently became part of the Cincinnati Enquirer‘s CincyMoms Blog Network, so we’re happily getting lots of new readers!

While I did make a few summer trips with the fam, my big professional vacation was attending the BlogHer conference, held in August in New York City. My fellow blogger and PR extraordinaire Shannan and I had a blast posing with mascots (see above pic with the Statue of Liberty), going to Broadway shows, meeting other bloggers and maybe just learning a few things along the way.

I really aim to update my own business blog more often in the future. And, by the way, my kids do have shoes — even if this blog doesn’t always have new posts.
