Guest Blogging

“Guest blogging” is when you write an entry, but then post it on somebody else’s blog, thus (theoretically, anyway) exposing your writing to a whole new audience. I was invited to fill in for a vacationing member of the long-running group blog, “Hey, There’s A Dead Guy In the Living Room.” The blogger-in-chief, Jeff Cohen, is one of my clients, and I also created the photo-illustration that you see at the top of “Dead Guy.” You can read my contribution here.

Joe doesn’t have his own blog, but he recently wrote this for our friend Janet A.’s “I Have No Endings.” Joe & Janet are both deputy marriage commissioners, and Janet writes a lively and funny (and, on occasion, heartbreaking) blog every week about the folks who come through Oakland’s Hall of Records to tie the knot. I complained to Joe that he never shares any good stories about the couples he marries, while Janet manages to come up with great recollections on a regular basis, so he finally decided to take some notes.
