Adventure week in Pokémon GO is officially over!
I’d like to do a nice little recap; I really want to start writing more on the games I enjoy playing and so I thought this is a great time to start.
So here’s a recap of my adventures on Sunday, June 12th!

A key concept to successful marketing is to prove that you, or your product/service, provides a much needed solution to a common problem. But what happens when you have the solution, but there’s no immediate problem? You do what some of these brilliant minds do: you create the problem.

We’ve all dreamt of getting away with a crime as children. Some adults still do – but most won’t act on those thoughts. You’d hope.
My recurrent dream is quite simple: how I would evade capture if I was on the show Hunted.

But I have a plan, anyway.

It was shocking for me to realise the other day that I have been working in the digital PR industry now for over twelve months!
I have learnt so much this past year, from what digital PR actually is, how it can aid with search engine ranking, and what makes an effective campaign.
Since starting, I’ve had the privilege of working on over 70 different campaigns for a large variety of clients. At the start of 2021, I set upon myself to achieve 500 placements (mentions and links, on sites with a DA of 20+) before December 31st, and I am so chuffed to say that today (Oct. 26) I reached it!
In the light of having something to celebrate, I thought I would look back on all of the campaigns I have done the last year and highlight 11 of my favourites.

For LGBTQ+ history month, I channeled my energy into writing an essay-turned-personal-essay-turned-blog-post on LGBTQ+ media throughout my childhood, and some thoughts on improving the appearance of LGBTQ+ portrayals in said media.

Happy Winter Solstice!
A few months back I posted about Summer Solstice celebrations, and so I’ve decided to do the same with the Winter Solstice – as well as a general round up of how 2020 has been for me.
Like the Summer Solstice marks the longest day, the Winter Solstice marks the shortest. Luckily for many, it means the nights are going to begin getting shorter, and we will see more daylight hours as the weeks progress.
