It’s been quite the odd year–what with recession, depression, and other words of doom being bandied about and budgets for copywriting drying up. The bulk of the work I’ve done has been for Harris County Flood Control District as a techwriter updating the application and user guides for all of the custom applications that their IS Department builds; and training users on new enhancements and new applications. Yea for HCFCD!
Nos Caves Vin and Ink Publishing/AirTran have helped to balance out the technical with the more (fun) marketing and travel writing work. Plus, this year has proven to be a big year in the Houston art community for me, working with the Sketchy Neighbors and a group of Houston Illustrators to promote and coordinate three incredibly successful group art shows in the last half of the year. Good times!
The generally slower work pace allowed me to travel domestically a bunch in the latter half of this year with trips to Hawaii, California, Florida, New York, Central and East Texas. In 2010, I hope to spread my wings a little further and get to DC, France, Mexico, Hawaii, Washington, Montana, and Louisiana.
Thanks for a wonderful year! And I wish you all the best for 2010!
