I’ve started doing some posts for the Nightlife blog at Uptake, which is fun. Now when I check out a bar or club on my travels, I can say it’s work. LOL

In between writing, I’ve been working on setting up a couple of blogs and I’ll post those links soon.

Thanks to everyone who continues to read my writings around the web!  Thanks also to everyone who passes on or Tweets the story links, stumbles one of my articles or clicks the Facebook “like” buttons on my articles. I really appreciate y’all supporting me and my writing!!

My Travel Articles/Posts for June 2010

Jul 1, 2010 travel, work, writing

It seems like last month just zoomed by. But since it’s the beginning of July, it’s time for another edition of the listing of my published articles and blog posts elsewhere on the internet. So in case you missed any, here are my June 2010 contributions to the travel web universe:

Lodging Blog at Uptake.com:

Suite101.com:

Due to special projects and other reasons, my actual article count was lower than normal. I’m hoping by the end of summer things will pick back up.

That said, I am available for freelance assignments (both editing and writing) and guest posting, if anyone is interested. Please contact me and let’s talk.

My Article List for March 2010

I don’t just write here. I also contribute articles and posts elsewhere on the web. So in case you’ve missed any of them, I compile a monthly listing of all of the links. Most, as can be expected, are travel related, but I did do a few entertainment pieces, too.

An Evening at Boma

Nov 18, 2009 Orlando, food and drink, work, writing

Monday night I had the pleasure of spending time in the company of some of my fellow bloggers from UpTake.  With several of the main office people in town for the PhoCusWright travel industry conference over at the Omni Championsgate, several of the Orlando-area UpTakers met up with them for dinner and drinks Monday, before the conferences started.

Animal Kingdom Lodge : Boma : Dinner Carving StationWe met up at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, and ate at Boma’s dinner buffet. Boma is one of my favorite restaurants at WDW, and though I normally eat there during the breakfast buffet, the dinner version is just as good. Actually, this time I noticed a few small differences that made it a more enjoyable experience.

One pleasant change was at the carving station. The last two times I ate dinner at Boma, the beef was only served medium rare and you had to hae the chef cook a slice to order if you wanted it well done, as I do.  This time, they had a second slab of well done beef ready to slice. I had a little bit of everything except the seafood items and the mushroom soup. Besides the beef, I enjoyed the Durban-spiced chicken, the bobotie (sort of a ground beef and lamb quiche) and of course the dessert spread. Especially once I poured the chocolate rum raisin sauce over most everything. LOL

Yes, I said chocolate rum raisin sauce.

It’s ok, I’ll give you a moment alone with your taste buds.

Anyways, the best part of the meal was the company. It was great meeting fellow travel writers, esp. since we all work together via telecommuting. I’m really hoping we can get together again, maybe make it a bi-monthly type of thing. So, a big hello to Elliott and Pat from the main office and my Orlando co-bloggers Britt, Shash, Brooke and Angela.

my article list for june 2009

Jul 2, 2009 travel, work, writing

Even with my hospital stay earlier this month, I’ve managed to post a lot this month. Of course it helps when I can’t leave the apartment since the heat makes my symptoms worse.

But if you missed anything I posted this month, here’s a listing for your reading pleasure:

Why Go Las Vegas:

No photos published on Flickr this month – didn’t really take anything new except for some hospital pix of my lumbar puncture healing and such. Not really stuff to share. LOL

It has been a bit difficult writing this month. Whatever is impairing my nervous system and my motor skills also makes me feel like I have a wad of cotton in my head. I also seem to black out randomly while I’m sitting on the couch typing.

Thanks again to everyone who takes the time to read my writings and articles. I really do appreciate the support and feedback!
