Yours truly has now signed on to be a member of The Magazine Association of the Southeast (MAGS) - the premier organization you should be a part of if you are involved in any aspect of the publishing industry, in my case, that being editorial. I believe they've around for 20 odd years and host the annual GAMMA conference! I am happy to be a member here for 2012 and cant wait to see the interesting opportunities it will bring my way.

Networking enthusiast that I am, further efforts to find resourceful networking groups that I can be a member of to connect and obtain leads for this business resulted in my becoming a member with the Atlanta Women's Independent Network (AIWN), a small and new group of women entrepreneurs from the most varied fields that have come together to help nurture and empower other women entrepreneurs. I attended their holiday party today and that pretty much sold it for me. Every single board member came over and introduced themselves once they knew I was a new member. They were all so friendly and approachable, ever ready to share information about the group and their experiences being members. They pulled together a fabulous holiday event, with food and a silent auction as well as wine tastings. They sure impressed me with their annual event calendar for 2012! I am upbeat about this group and look forward to the January meeting which will be a showcase for members to display their talents. You be sure I'll be there!
An interesting article I found online on the Atlanta Small Biz Blog that I can relate to -
The Power of Proofreading If you've been reading my blog you probably have read the name Walter Akana here before. Walter and I met through common friends and our mutual fascination for technology and social media had us hitting it off right away. I met with Walter today so we could both sound off ideas on what we were doing and where we were going professionally. Walter happens to be a life coach, works on projects for some big companies and has an inspiring website that will keep you captured and enslaved in no time! If you need Walter for your next company training session, reach out and rest assured he will grab the opportunity to work with you. He is a real people person, one who is very approachable and friendly, and has a lot to share that could well be worth your time and effort.
