Lady who Launches

To say it’s been a busy week is the understatement of the century. I’ve barely had time to sleep.

On Wednesday we launched The Nod. My new job is as editor of the site, and it’s great to see it finally go live. Now the real hard work begins! The site is all about celebrities and the products that they’ve been spotted using and wearing, and also the places they go, and links celeb profiles to lists of their ‘Nods’. Now we’re live, as well as writing editorial content, most of my day is spent researching what the Jennifers and Jessicas have been up to in the last 24 hours. Very different from Catwalk Queen, but lots of fun nevertheless.

I also soft-launched my new pet project, Big Girls Browse, a fashion blog for curvy women. Right now I’m unsure how much time I’ll have to devote to it but I still wanted to get it off the ground. I started to work on it when I thought I’d be going four days a week in my old job, and would have a day of freelance to devote to writing it and working on other projects, but with my full time commitments at The Nod, that fell by the wayside a little. I may find BGB isn’t updated as much as I’d like, but I had to give myself a chance.

I’ve been working a little bit with Gumtree to provide some content for their new blog too, just one post per week, mainly around the fashion and fun areas. Look out for my top ten pets post – so many cuties!

Finally, Domestic Sluttery hosted an amazing event last night, so thank you to everyone who came. I remember meeting Sian way back in November at a Qype event and she told me about this great idea she had for a fun domestic blog and I knew I have to be involved (though at the moment I barely contribute one post a month). It’s amazing how one little fun idea can capture so many people’s imaginations.
