In the spirit of transparency rightfully demanded by public relations, I must make a confession. This is my first blog post – ever. And I have to wonder, how is that possible? As a former reporter who was held to strict editorial guidelines, why have I not yet seized this opportunity to write with freedom of opinion? As a PR professional who carefully crafts each word for clarity of communications, why have I yet to create my own platform where I can let the words flow freely? I guess it’s because it’s such fun to be a voyeur. There are so many great voices out there sharing information, so many dynamic minds with eye-opening insights, that it’s quite rewarding to simply be a sponge and tune in to the chatter about innovative (or just plain fun) PR and marketing strategies, stunts and smarts you can read about on blogs including Beyond PR, Richard Edelman’s 6 a.m., or What’s Next Blog .
Tell us if there are any blogs that you think we should be reading, and meanwhile, we’ll let the words flow freely right here.
