Getting Started....

Well....I can't believe I am FINALLY on this site and into my account. Too many damn passwords and usernames for me to remember! I swear. I try to use the same password for everything but somehow it doesn't work. Then I end up forgetting them. Think about it. How many pin numbers and passwords do we have these days? SHIT I was about to give up on blogging. I was just on this site last night! Somehow between then and now, I forgot what I used to sign on...anyway, I am a little slow with all this digital stuff so I am testing this out. I am getting ready to set up a website for my many projects (two of which I hope to have done by the end of the year). The one near and dear to my heart, actually they both are but Great Black South Africans has been five years in the making. FIVE freakin' years. Can you believe that? It's longer than most relatonships I've had! I am planning to publish a short run of the beautiful poster by years end. I have sent draft copies to Alfre Woodard, Charlayne Hunter-Gault, the lady at the South African embassy in Los Angeles, Chris Gardner (a former homeless man now millionaire whose life story is being made into a movie called "The Pursuit of Happyness" starring Will Smith, Ave Montague (publicist extraordinare in sfo), Belva Davis at the soon-to-be-open Museum of the African Diaspora (www.moadsf.org) and several others who I can't think of right now...anyway, I am trying to get the word out about it, publish it and get it back to South Africa where is rightfully belongs...I will keep you posted.
