#BlogHer13 and the Amazing Technicolor Weekend

Posted on July 27, 2013 | 19 Comments

Once upon a time, there were two girls who blue into the Windy City.

Split a bottle of white at the Purple Pig

and donned their dress reds.

Orange you glad I shared?

I was there too! It was great and fun and informative! I’m still unpacking all the swag. I was most impressed, though, with the amazing diversity on display. I’m happy to be counted in the group of talented women.

You crack me right up. So glad to have met you…and thanks again for talking me off the ledge when I may or may not have shattered a bottle of RED all over the floor at a certain after-party. 😉

I loved watching your creative process in writing this. Very much like my own:
1. Planning it out in your head.
2. Sharing it outloud.
3. Editing it a million times, four different ways.
4. Come back to the very first version where you started.
5. Write it up and publish.

Very clever idea. Well executed!

  You are too kind, but I think it’s a little more like this …
  
  1. Texting you endlessly about my “idea.”
  2. Deciding that texting isn’t salient enough and just calling your cell.
  3. Typing it up at 2am.
  4. Emailing it to you for unpaid proofing. (You should really demand a salary.)
  5. Making changes I never mentioned in the first place and pressing “publish.”
  
  Then finding a typo.
