Vermont Shortbread Company in Business People Vermont

A few weeks ago, Bill Simmon, writer for Business People Vermont contacted me to see if I'd like to be interviewed for an article in the August issue on new media.  Of course, I said yes.  I devour the print version of Business People Vermont as soon as it hits my mailbox each month.  For non-Vermont readers, it's chock-full of juicy tidbits about Vermont businesses.  I use it to plan my marketing for Vermont Shortbread Company and my writing work.

When the August issue and the article (Media 2.0: An introduction to a few of the new media for savvy business owners) appeared yesterday, I was tickled and honored to find myself grouped with the likes of popular Burlington bloggers Elaine Young of Champlain College and Cathy Resmer of Seven Days.  Even Bill Simmon, who wrote the article recently earned the coveted Seven Days Daysie Award for Best Vermont (non-political) Blog.   And as it turns out, one of Bill's Candleblog authors is none other than old pal Todd Pritsky with whom I had the pleasure of working and laughing with at Hill Associates back in the telecom heyday.   Todd was one of my favorite people at Hill.  (Yes, Vermont's a small state where everyone seems to know someone I know...a good reason to be nice to everyone, everyday!)

Anyway, I digress...I'm just grateful my shortbread stuff gets noticed now and then. 

If anyone has an extra copy of the Business People Vermont print publication, I need one to send my parents.  They prefer paper 1.0 to web 2.0.

P.S.  I'm having a broken freezer sale.  Well, actually, it's almost like a giveaway...I have a ton of shortbread that will make me cry if it goes to waste.  You pay shipping and a small handling fee or come pick it up and it's yours for the taking.  But act now, supplies will ummmm...degrade soon. 

P.S.S. God bless Recycle North.   We LOVE Recycle North!  We found a 15 cubic foot freezer for $100.  They were about $400 new at local retailers.

your reference to paper 1.0 made me laugh out loud. I take great comfort in knowing that my geekiness does not exist without peer. Yesterday, I said to a friend that I preferred my journal for writing to my notebook computer because it boots faster.
