We interrupt this political broadcast with an important message from our sponsor...
Since I’ve never really advertised my business, The Language Artist, many people don’t know I offer manuscript typing services.
If you’re working on a book, research paper, article, etc., and need help typing and formatting it according to a certain style or publisher’s specifications, contact me at barbersview [at] yahoo.com. I work from legible handwritten or typed copies. Rates:
Monday, June 23: Such thoughtful readers! Thanks for the “speedy recovery” well wishes. The procedure was minor, and I was back to my old self within a couple of days.
—————————————————-
For the past three weeks, I’ve been in muggy SC. En route back to muggy DC. I came down to have and recover from minor surgery (first time under the knife!) and spend time with the family. My mother’s a surgical assistant, as I’ve mentioned before, and knows a lot about these things. I wanted to be near an “expert” as I recovered. The truth is…well…I just wanted my Mommy. 
In the same post I talk about surgery and my Mommy, I seek new business! (I dig the blogosphere. Don’t you?) I blog for businesses that don’t have the expertise or time or desire to update their company blogs inhouse. If you need a content provider, let’s talk. Contact me for a free consultation, resume, and work samples: lashawn [at] lashawnbarber.com. I don’t blog or “ghostblog” for politicians.
Attention bloggers and wanna-be bloggers in the D.C. area!
There are still slots available for a seminar I’m leading with fellow consultant Ken Yarmosh. Crash Course on Blogging is geared toward non-profit organizations but contains useful information for anyone who is blogging or thinking of starting a blog.
I will explain the benefits of blogging, what a blog can do for your organization, and how to build an audience, and Ken will demystify the technical jargon and show you how to set up a blog.
The seminar will be held at the Leadership Institute on 1101 North Highland Street, Arlington, VA 22201, on Monday, December 19, from 7:00-9:30 p.m. The cost is only $35.
For more information, you may contact me or Ken Yarmosh.
Addendum: Thanks for all the guest blogger “applications.” I will be contacting you shortly.
Please welcome guest bloggers Hube of Colossus of Rhodey, Independent Conservative, Mean Dean at Blogs4God, and Pamela of Atlas Shrugs. While I focus on other things for the next few days, these great bloggers will provide LBC readers with fresh content and controversy. I like controversy.
