and so it begins...

So, i guess you can say that this once a day blogging is something you have to dedicate yourself to. I know the first day i started this joint, i posted like 12 times :) But, it's been a couple days since my last post..I'm working on this everyday thing... promise

HELLO! to all my visitors..thank you

I'm really excited about this new form of communication. Already my encouragement and I have put our heads together for a blog she's going to start...all about the nightlife and entertainment scene in different cities. Basically, it'll be an excuse to get OUT and mingle..get into something new
:)

but, what I'm really excited to announce is that I'll be leading SchemeMag.com's March issue..that will be dedicated to female artists of all types. The running lists looks a little like this:

Erykah Badu
Amel Larieux*
M.I.A.*
Tiombe Lockhart
St. Juste
Younglao
Ladessa
Lorna Williams
KYLA: Black'n'Bling
JOI
Alice Smith
Brinae Ali

*=possible interviews! Editor is working on those

...and i'm working on some more. So, keep out for that..should be Niiiice! if i say so myself ;)

Alright, alright! so all who know me, KNOW that i'm always in front of my computer.."researching" as i like to say..but basically listening to music..finding new talent to cover and albums to purchase...it has lately become my social life..and semi love life :/ but ummm...i'm working on leaving the pc alone a couple hours a day and gettin' out there...perhaps that blog you're supposed to start Krys..needs to happen asap ;)

...what i'm trying to get to is this.

my bff and I were talking last night, and discussion turned to passions and how do you know what it is..or if you even have one. After thinking a bit..i realized that I was blessed to have found my passion. Not only did writing become a skill and not only a talent..but i added my love for music. I'm no novice to music however, I'm a classically trained flautist. But to enter the world of hip hop and other genre bending classifications..you gotta have love for the craft. And, trust me, I do! I'll drop anything to hit up a good show...(friends know that)..Any artists worthy of my dollar sees me in the crowd. :D

But, yea...writing and music. That's where it ends..or should i say begins. I'm going to put it out there that my good friend Kendra and myself are going to finally START our own female art and music collective/magazine/website..i say this now because i want to believe it. Shoot! I want you to believe it. It's been long enough..and we both feel like it's time....you'll know when it officially happens..TRUST!

I leave you with this tune however...Noel Zancanella..he's hot..he's from L.A. the city of lost loves :( but anyway..get a taste of something new ;) until next time...ahem! tomorrow
