I Need Your Help Desperately For My Niche

My people, I need your help. Urgently and desperately. As you know, I have registered Verastic as a business, but that's only the beginning as there is so much more to do. For starters, I need to define, establish, and understand my niche and my Sweet Potatoes. I'm working on a lot of things, and I'll be telling you about them as time goes on. I'm a little frustrated right now that I don't have the time I need to do everything I need to do. But I'm trying. I apologize for the times that it takes Read More

My Weekend Recount: Blogalicious Conference In Baltimore + 5 Lessons I Took Away

Second day look at Blogalicious blog conference #byoe15

Sooo, it was the Blogalicious blog conference this past weekend, and the theme was, Build Your Own Empire. Although I had heard about Blogalicious before, this was the first time I attended their conference. In fact, I had no intention of doing any more travelling for the year, but when I saw that it was in Baltimore, I could not resist. We barely ever have events here. Usually, I type a Vera Goes post when I'm travelling, but there was no travelling involved. Igwe tried to encourage me to stay Read More

Journal #8: August 2015

Welcome to September. We are now in the “mber” months, which means one thing: Christmas is almost here AND we are about to enter a new year. Didn’t 2015 just start yesterday? Nevertheless, I’m looking forward to all that God has in store for me and my family. August was interesting for me. I didn’t make the power career moves I hoped to make, nor did I do anything news-worthy (in my opinion). I wish I had the same kind of news I had in July for you: attended another BlogHer conference, Read More

If Balaam Was Nigerian (And His Donkey Talked)

Igwe and I are still reading the bible and trying to know God better. Currently, we're in the first book of Samuel. We have not gone as far as we should have because for a couple of weeks, we slacked. I cannot speak for Igwe, but for me, I wish I was a better child of God. I'm disappointed in how many times I dishonor Him in a day. But for now, let's focus on the humor I find in the bible. I especially love comparing some of these stories to the characters being Nigerian. Today, we're looking at Read More

Rude Party Guest — Or Was I Overreacting?

This is something that happened at this year's BlogHer conference. I just kind of forgot to blog about it. On the first day (Thursday), that was when the ice-breaking parties happened in the evening. For me, the first conference day is usually just for fun and nothing serious. Anyway, I attended one of the parties of that night, which was the Multi-Culti party. It's supposed to celebrate influencers of different cultures. I got there about an hour after it started and I didn't know anyone Read More
