A film writing gig!

First off, I do apologize for not keeping up with my blog with movie recommendations. It has been extremely busy for the past month and a half and I really hope things are going to calm down, like now. I have a few movies I need to finish soon, so stay tuned for their verdicts!

Moving on to the "big news," something great has happened this week that I never thought I would be able to do. A couple weeks ago, my dear friend/fellow blogger Eric shared exciting news that he is a contributing writer for the online publication Examiner.com as the Atlanta New Dads Examiner. Examiner.com is a Denver-based news website categorized by city with different writers for a field (i.e. Atlanta Movie Examiner). So excited about his news, I called him and congratulated him on his awesome accomplishment. As I was talking to him about the site, he suggested I apply for a position. I said I would think about it and pretty much left it at that.

About a week later (last Thursday night to be specific), I went to the site and applied for the position Atlanta Indie Film Examiner. Saying it would take about two weeks for my application to be reviewed, I expected to be lost in the shuffle of applications. However, I checked my email Monday and it turns out they liked me and I'm now officially a contributing writer! My first article is up and running and I just finished my second article.

And don't worry, I'll still be writing here and on Mitten and Moustache, it's just another cool site I'll say my two cents. ;-)
