Newport Jazz Fest 2023!

Another Jazz Fest for the history books!

I only went to the Sunday program this year, and it was still an amazing experience, although I really hated that I missed Big Freedia on Friday.  I jammed out to Cimafunk, an Afro-Cuban jazz funk band. It was also great to see hip-hop legends Rakim, Talib Kweli, and, of course, Herbie Hancock.  However, Samara Joy was the biggest highlight for me.  She is a rising star in the music world, and I anticipate great things for her in the future!

If you missed Jazz this year, check out all the artists here:

.@RozzieBound ‘s Upbeat Playlist

My bookstore had its first happy hour a couple of weeks ago with author Magogodi oaMphela Makhene, along with discounted books and drinks. I updated our upbeat playlist on Spotify, which we only play for these types of occassions. A little dance party took place.

I hope you like the tunes!

A Very Barbenheimer Weekend!

I had originally intended to see one movie this weekend, but ended up watching both!

I saw Barbie on Saturday.  It was such a fun movie for kids and kids at heart, like myself, who remember playing with Barbie dolls as a child. Then on Sunday, my friend Brad asked me to go see Oppenheimer, as he had an extra ticket to see it on IMAX. Oppenheimer is a very intense but fascinating film.

Not only was this a historic film weekend, but this was also the first time I went to a movie theater since before the pandemic.

If Barbenheimer were really a thing, it would have been the greatest movie ever made!

 

Copywriting For Media Professionals Webinar

What's NewWe are excited to announce that Global Wire Associates will bring back our weeklong webinar Copywriting For Media Professionals, this fall.  This is an extension of our ContentCamp series.

The webinar will be similar to ContentCamp but will be specifically geared towards media professionals either looking to gain skills to continue working in journalism and media or switching careers into the growing marketing communications fields.  Good writing skills are easily transferable into other high-demand careers or just a side job.

The webinar will focus on writing copy that sells products and services and the growing number of platforms to sell your work, including websites, email campaigns, social media, newsletters, and more.  We will end the seminar with ways to find work.

Copywriting For Media Professionals is scheduled to start in October.  We will post more information, registration, and pricing in the weeks to come.
