Here are a few links/shameless plugs for your viewing pleasure…

My awesome friend who writes books 

While I was busy daydreaming about writing a novel, my dah-ling Keisha Bell actually did it. She's a dynamic writer and public speaker. Learn her name now, before she gets too famous.

My fabulous church

Pinellas Community Church is welcoming, diverse, and always relevant to my life. If you’re in Tampa Bay, come check it out. You can wear jeans, and there’s even a cappuccino stand on your way into the sanctuary.

My day job

The St. Petersburg Times is an award-winning newspaper. Tbt* (Tampa Bay Times) is its younger, hipper cousin. I’m blessed to write for both.

My side hustle

Is it still considered a hustle if I don’t get paid? At any rate, I’m a volunteer translator for Latinitas, a super-cool Web ‘zine for Hispanic girls and teens. Even if you’re not Latina—as I am not—you’ll find the content interesting. Read it in English or Spanish.

The Bible made easy

The Bible has come a long way since the 10 Commandments were written on stone tablets, but it’s still as relevant as ever. With Bible Gateway, you can search by topic or verse in a variety of versions and languages. Arabic Life Application Bible, anyone?

For future Pulitzer Prize winners

Yes, this is a shameless plug for my alma mater, but if you’re interested in journalism, consider Ohio University’s E.W. Scripps School of Journalism. It really is one of the best programs in the country.

Our family’s newsletter

My aunt Susan keeps relatives in touch with The Berry Bugle. It’s amusing even if you don’t know our family.

My daddeo

Maybe if I’d practiced the piano and violin more instead of always claiming to have a “stomach ache,” I’d be an awesome musician like my father, Fred. He plays just about everything. If you need music for any occasion, then remember his company, Hall of Fame Productions.

My brotha from anotha motha

Actually, he's from the same motha, but whatever. My brother, Freddie, and his bud Charlie make pretty cool short films. If you're in need of two guys with a video camera, hit 'em up.

I’d like to thank God and…

Much love to the guys at nomadicaMedia for putting together this lovely Web site.
