Kudos to me

Good news. A few weeks back I did a live interview (my first in a few years...) with two members of theAudition. I shot their show, wrote the feature and fired off the article and photos to my editor. The article and pics went up over the weekend (read it here) and I got the following email from my editor yesterday:

Hi,
I just wanted to send a quick email and let you know that Victory Records was EXTREMELY pleased with your feature on theAudition!
I already received two emails from people over there and a third from the Victory promotions/touring manager who set this up. See below!
Thanks for doing it! - Sherri


Sherri-

This is wonderful! The story is great, the pics are great! It’s going in my reports to make sure the whole staff takes a look at this!

Not to brag, but yay me! I'm pretty psyched that Victory was so happy with the article and photos. This may mean that they'll be very willing to guestlist and photo-pass me for other artists on their label.


It's been a nuts week. The MME is tiring, I've got an insane amount to do and I feel a little icky. I'm hoping I'm just run down, but of course I worry about all sorts of things. I'm trying to get in with the doctor tomorrow because I'm getting a little worried about this since I've felt sort of icky for a bit over a week. For a while I felt like I was getting better, but today I felt gross all over again. Please let it be nothing. I hate it when I feel gross enough to start to worry but not so gross that I can just say, "oh, full out cold, again, boo hiss. That sucks but it'll be gone in a few days." My problem is, growing up with a mom that's a nurse, I tend to have the attitude of "oh, it isn't bad, it'll go away on it's own." Usually that's a fine attitude, but occasionally it is bad (er, like the time I was in 8th grade and had appendicitis but didn't tell my mom about the fact my right side was killing me for a good 24 hours. It ruptured.)

Well, I have to churn out a few reviews tonight and I want to get them done so I can take a nap. I'm exhausted.

Congratulations!!!! Thats sooooo cool! (The writing/kudos, not the sickness part). :)

Maybe you'll end up at Rolling Stone after all- making it there by your own writing, and not by some chance audition through MTV. :)
