MY GIRLS
As I wrap one project with recurring client BET, I’m excited that another is publishing TODAY my latest assignment that I wrote and filed a couple of months ago: http://www.cnn.com/2012/08/07/living/gay-best-friend/.
The editors at CNN.com reached out to me to write this story as I’ve been shopping a book proposal for a few years on the very subject.
I’m currently remixing the game plan for my project (“Big Willies & Amazing Graces: gay men and their best girlfriends”) to include portraits and video (either documentary or on-line viral series [TBD]).
Meanwhile, as I do more on-cam/print pop culture analysis and event hosting, I am EXCITED to celebrate a group of women who – all my life – have been very special to me.
Indeed, my mom and my sister set the sweet tone before I even knew what the melody was. LOL!
But the ladies of whom I am speaking rounded out the metaphorical score of my adolescent and adult years. And through each of them, I HEAR A SYMPHONY.
You’ll meet Natalie and Nichole in this piece, but my AMAZING GRACEs run deep.
I’ll shout out a few of them here (in alphabetical order here, but no order in my heart):
Audrey
Bernie
Carla
Chandra
Elise
Itika
Jakki
Lisa
Mara
Patrice
Sidra
Tata
Tish
….and so many more! I LOVE YOU ALL!
As always, THANKS to each and every one of you for your support.
And a special shout out to CNN.com for assigning me this piece: I filed something for the site back in the fall of 2011 for its Martin Luther King Jr. Monument coverage (on MLK, Morehouse, and the Morehouse College Glee Club): http://edition.cnn.com/2011/10/14/us/mlk-memorial-morehouse-glee-club/index.html.
