Clue into clePOP (aka We're moving!)
New Blog Post: Clue into clePOP (aka we're moving!)
Occasionally, whether we recognize it or not, it’s time to take a sabbatical.
A few months ago, I got an offer to move into PR Newswire’s marketing department to manage the company’s blog Beyond PR.
While I hadn’t been looking to start a new job at the time, I’m glad it came along. Getting to write, design, edit, organize our editorial calendar, recruit contributors and develop strategy every…

Scott and I Jump Back to the Future at PlayhouseSquare's #JBB24
New Blog Post: Scott and I jumped back to the future. Our recap of @playhousesquare's #jbb24:
As a longtime Back to the Future fanatic, Scott freaked out when this year’s Jump Back Ball theme was announced. The guy knew what his costume was going to be almost immediately. Because of this and because I’m chair of PlayhouseSquare Partners, the group that organizes Jump Back Ball each year, I figured a recap’s better coming from him than me. After reading it, I was right. Enjoy!
Yeah. That…

How many times have you watched a play, attended a concert or seen a painting and left inspired to take on greatness?
Art is magical in the way it fills us with the desire to pursue glory, revolt against whatever’s holding us back, and love with every inch of our body.

GIVEAWAY: Win 2 Tickets to #Cleveland International Film Festival's Get Shorty Film Feast #cle
The thawing of ice, the sound of chirping birds, the return of the Cleveland International Film Festival. These are all signs that spring has come to Cleveland.
As much as I’ll welcome the warmer weather, I think that CIFF is the sign of spring I’m most excited for.
If you haven’t been to the festival before, here’s a post I wrote a couple of years ago about it.

Cuddle Up at the Zoo's Animal Attractions on February 5
New Blog Post: Cuddle Up at @clevezoosociety's Animal Attractions on February 5 #cle #thisiscle
Over the holidays, Scott and I celebrated our tenth anniversary together. I know that’s not so long for others (I marvel at my parents who have been married for over 45 and together for over half a century). But still, a decade.
All those mushy feelings make getting through the drabness of another cold winter much easier to bear. Because there’s nothing like a little bit of passion to warm the…

Jump Back to the Future: PlayhouseSquare Partners' #JBB24 Ticket Kickoff Party
New Blog Post: Get your tix to Jump Back to the Future at @PlayhouseSquare Partners' #JBB24 Ticket Kickoff
The Back to the Future trilogy has a very soft spot in my heart.
Like most kids from the 80s, I watched the first Back to the Future a zillion times growing up. I don’t know whether it was my penchant for only listening to oldies music, but the Earth Angel scene was the one that stuck with me the most. The film also instilled in me a life-long obsession with Christopher Lloyd.
For some reason,…

Lake Erie Love: Falling in Love with Fall on Put-in-Bay
New #LakeErieLove Blog Post: Falling in Love with Fall on Put-in-Bay
Smiles all around after a wonderful Fall day on Put-in-Bay
Although everyone may think of Put-in-Bay as a summer locale, Fall is my favorite time to visit the island.
Island life is a little less hectic. The ferry trip on the lake’s choppier waters is its very own thrill ride. And the tree-lined streets are absolutely gorgeous — all of that red, yellow, orange, and green against the backdrop of…

Enter to win 4 tickets to Cedar Point’s Halloweekends (good through November 2)
When it comes to Halloween, it can be difficult to find one place that makes everyone happy.
Sure, there are some places that do family-friendly fun exceptionally well. And there are other places that can put a fright in the bravest of souls. But excelling at one usually happens at the expense of the other.
