Loving: This awesome poster from PosterCandy.com.au.
This is a great new service where you can turn your Instagram photos into a poster. It’s all done online and, using the PosterCandy application, you can drag and drop the photos you want into posters of various sizes.

I chose a poster that’s 100cm x 70cms, it arrived last week and I love it! Apparently, it fits standard IKEA frames so I’m going get that next time I visit that monolith.

(And no, this is not a sponsored post. I just think this is really cool!)

 

 

Featured on:
* Social Media Knowledge did this interview with me here.

* 612 ABC Brisbane radio. I did a 10 minute segment on “The 7 Deadly Sins of Social Media” this week.

Reading: The latest issue of Latte
Well, since I’m editor of Latte magazine (published by Business Chicks), I’ve obviously already know it intimately. But there’s nothing like the feeling when the printed copy finally lands in your hands. In this issue, I interview best-selling author and creator of Sex and the City, Candace Bushnell.

 

 

Hosting: Let’s Talk Business
Earlier this week, I hosted the first in the Let’s Talk Business seminar series at the Town Hall in Sydney. I LOVE this seminar series – the networking is awesome and I always meet great people who sometimes end up as suppliers, customers or friends!

 

 

Buying: I love this idea so much I bought a bracelet. Jewellery For A Cause has jewellery inspired by certain causes (it also has regular jewellery) and 20 per cent of the price gets donated to the charity of your choice. I bought this bracelet and the donation went to Monika’s Doggie Rescue.

 

 

Looking forward to:
Digital Parents Conference 20 and 21 March 2013.
I’m MC-ing this two-day conference so if you’re attending, make sure you come and say Hi.

Fabulous presenters from the Australian Writers’ Centre – Kerri Sackville, Allison Tait and Sue White – are also attending and we’ll be taking the afternoon sessions on:
* How to get paid to write for (print and online) magazines
* Your Writing Clinic – How to make your writing sparkle
* How to go from blogging to a book deal

Driving: From Sydney to Melbourne
Yes, I’m at it again. This week, little doggie Rambo and I drove from Sydney to Melbourne. I’ve done this so many times now that I reckon the Hume Highway and I are besties!
