Bumped and bruised, but not broken.

About Me

I'm Jenn. Generally, I work too much and don't "play" nearly enough. That about sums me up. lol I'm with the most incredibly sweet guy in the world (Patrick), and have two cute (although often obnoxious) kitty cats. :)I'm luckier than most in that I can say I truly love what I do... instead of dreading my work like most people, it's the reason I get up in the morning, and the reason I survive practically w/o sleep. ;) I get to work with a lot of incredibly interesting people, from indie musicians to authors to online business owners who are out there doing new things.Due to the fact that I work so much, I don't get out as much as I should. Most of the people I used to know in the area left back during college, so I really don't know many people anymore. Of course most people annoy me anyway, so it's all good. I'm obnoxious like that... not easy to get to know me, but if I let someone in I'd do pretty much anything for them. So I'm worth the aggrevation. ;)Occasionally I'll talk to random people online, so if you're from the area and feel like chatting, you can feel free to say hi. I promise I won't bite.I keep myself busy (or is it called "overworked"?) between:
My business
Freelance Writing Jobs
FirstRate Content - Business writing services and PLR business article packs FadMarketing.com - An honest look at marketing fads and trends. The Six Figure Challenge - 5 Writers. 6 Figures. 1 Year.

FreeDeepLinks.com - A directory of articles across the Web, giving free one-way incoming links to their authors or site owners
SuiteSite.com - Just a personal blog I post to when I think about it. I use it to link to related Suite101 articles as a backlink tool for them, but just write about whatever strikes my fancy, from men to my business (kinda like my Myspace blog, only half the posts aren't blocked out for a "lucky" few). ;)
And at least another dozen or so projects and sites being developed, including the following set to launch this year:
AllBusinessWriting.com - a blog and services site for business writing
AllPRWriting.com - a blog and services site for PR writing
BizHow2.com - a blog / content site of how-to articles for business owners
Cwriter.com - a blog on copywriting

PRbeat.com - press release distribution (might be delayed until '08)
WarpWire.com - music press release distribution site
BandEPKs.com - a much larger project, set to be a direct competitor with SonicBids (might also be delayed until next year while I build media lists and pre-launch buzz)In other words, I'm a busy girl....

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can keep my interest for more than 5 minutes. ;) I'm not a social bug who has to constantly be talking to people. I prefer reserving my time and energy for people who are genuinely "good", funny w/o having to be crude, and most importantly, people who can hold an intelligent conversation.I'm usually willing to talk with people involved with indie music or marketing / PR somehow, or other young entrepreneurs. I'm always open to networking or just chatting w/ anyone who can amuse me enough to break up a bit of the monotony in my days.
