One of the Benefits of Self Employment
I work for a small company. It offers many freedoms that the corporate world can't. One is the dress code which Paul takes advantage of frequently.

Game On
More news on the press front.
I have managed to acquire some coverage for our company's game studio.
We're working on an unannounced title with Atari-owned Humongous, Inc, and we thought we'd let a few people know since there are basically no other game developers currently located in good ol' South Carolina.

It's Hard Out There For A Pimp
Since moving back to Myrtle Beach, SC, I've been working at 803 Productions to assist them with their public relations and business development efforts.
It seems that the intermittent bursts of work I do between bouts of Internet socializing and long lunches have been quite successful. I've managed to get quite a bit of publicity for our biggest client and the magazine they publish.
Of course, most of this includes print and Internet press, but my favorite accomplishment has to be booking the magazine publisher on a small, locally popular cable channel program. Imagine the Entourage crew walking on the set of a southern version of Coffee Talk. We were there in suits to talk about a financial lifestyle publication surrounded by lovely, Dress Barn attired women discussing their homemade crafts and produce.
All of this prompted the client to tell the 803 partners to be sure and keep me around.
Plus, I scored a free margarita candle and a fresh peach.
