Making progress

I am happy to announce that I feel like I am FINALLY making progress on some of my projects. I have my website up and I LOVE it. Aswan really hooked me up.If you need a good web designer, let me know I will put you in touch with her. It's so funny, she was at my house showing me some of what she had done and my mother came over...turns out they know each other!!! I didn't know it and Aswan didn't know why my mom looked so familiar to her...they had travelled in Egypt together in 1988! Small world. So I am in the process of mailing out complimentary copies of the poster. Last week I sent out press releases to local media. I am sending to Randall Robinson and Henry Louis Gates today. I tried to send one to Oprah but she doesn't take unsolicited mail! Not to worrry, I have folks who are connected (I ain't connected but I have folks who are) who can see that she gets a copy, I hope. Check out the website...now I need to finish Head Designs and stop avoiding my South African travelogue. Still no pics on the MoAD site. I have been waiting for over two months...have sent them three times! I am spending a small fortune on postage but I don't care... this is the fun part...sending them out so others can see this beautiful project. Next....I have to get it to my schools and peeps in Acornhoek!
