I got tagged by Ben at Social Media Marketing. That means I get to tell you five things about me you may not know, and tag five other blogging delinquents to do the same.
It’s viral, but interesting. How else would I know that Ben Wills used to DJ at raves?
Since it’s a deadline day, I’ll get right to it:
- An award-winning photojournalist in college, I left school for a copywriter’s job – which I got largely by accident. A friend sent “colorful” Hawaiin shirts to an assistant Creative Director buddy at an agency. I wrote faux ads to accompany them. Viola!
- I live at the base of Mount Shasta – a 14,162′ inactive volcano – and fly fish several times a week (I also write a fly fishing blog)
- I write on a 12 year-old IBM keyboard that’s outlasted four PCs. It’s tough as nails, but I know I’ll have to replace it someday.
- I hate pesto. Just can’t stomach the stuff. I tried hard to like it, but couldn’t. The secret’s out.
- I am not related to Raymond Chandler (though many people say I look just like Brad Pitt).
There it is. Exposed. I feel as if a great weight has been lifted.
Who’s next on the list? Megan at posts from the edge; Walter at Inklings; Kiwiwriter at My Year of Getting Published; Tom at Busy Being Born; and Alistair from Urban Fly Fishing on the Kelvin.
Hi Tom,
Thanks for the tag. I’ve taken up the challenge and posted ‘five things…’ on my blog. New tags have been chosen.
Happy Holidays

I created a “Blog Tag Tree” that is keeping track of the blog tag meme. I just updated your tags.

Tom,
My 5 items are posted and I’m working on a second set of 5 for the business blog. I’ve tagged a couple people in case Michael wants to add to the “Tag Tree”.
It’s like chain mail, but cooler!
Cheerio~
