Ghostwriting

As you’ve no doubt noticed, I’m a bit whorish when it comes to promoting my own work. Why else would I have spent Q1 writing about booze and sex? So far my goal for 2012 has been liquoring you up before introducing you to a girl who wants you to dip your fish fingers into her custard. In case I’m being too subtle – go buy my geek books about drinking and dating. Meanwhile, in order to pay the rent, I’ve quietly landed some ghostwriting gigs. I find the stuff I’m writing about utterly fascinating, but due to very understandable…

Hey, where’d my content go?

The last few weeks have been pretty exciting here in Chris-Rachael’s Ghetto of Goodness. My big news is a shift in employment. Thanks to a charming startup, I’ve graduated from Freelance Writer to Director of Content. I’m still writing restaurant reviews for Patch and indie city roundups for Metromix, but the bulk of my working hours are now quite literally taken up spreading good in the world. I manage the blog OK Cheers! It’s the kind of upbeat place people can stop by to restore their faith in humanity before taking one more call from a customer they want to…

I spontaneously woke up at 3 am brimming over with great ideas for progressive dining events. New proposal time. Stay tuned! Louisville has so darn many good restaurants.

Now, time to struggle back into slumber so I won’t be a groggy mess when making calls tomorrow. Er…later on today.

Yesterday, I spent a couple hours on the phone talking to people at Wild Turkey, Jim Beam, Woodford Reserve, and Four Roses. If you’re not a bourbon drinker, those names probably don’t mean much. If you are, then you know there are perks to living in Kentucky. I wish I could say Woodford Reserve begged me to design a kick ass display for the upcoming Bourbon Festival in September. Alas. However, all four P.R. Managers were genuinely friendly and enthusiastic. That’s not something I can say about most international companies. Heck, it’s not something I can say about most small manufacturers. This…

Timing is Everything

No, no, no. My viral overlords are eager for a whole new set of hosts. I awoke to find they’d been sandpapering away at my throat all night long. First thing this morning, I’m exhausted, weak, and my throat hurts like hell. I desperately want to crawl back into bed and stay there until the dust settles in the construction zone that has become my throat. Alas, I can’t. This is my first day of work.
