Today I talk with Stuffsmith, Keith Lo Bue.

After talking with Keith I realized I might be a Stuffsmith as well! I’ve been a big fan of Keith’s work so there was lots to talk about and ideas discussed that got my brain humming along.

Also, books, movies and music to share as well. Enjoy and a big “Thank You” to my friend Keith down under.
(you should stand right side up now so the blood can drain back down from your head! lol)

I’m getting ready for a road trip. I’m packing the car with more
then I need, and loading up my iPhone with music and podcasts
and hitting the highway. I’m looking forward to time in my car to
think out loud and sing out loud. Destination, Baltimore, Maryland, Synergy 2010

Click the link to read up on the event. It’s 4 days worth of
creative workshops and lectures and social soirees. My idea of
a good time. I’m looking forward to being with friends I
made at the last conference, and making new ones as well.

I’ll be speaking on a few panels plus giving the closing keynote
speech which is a brand new experience for me…
but I do enjoy talking into a mic…lol

I let you know how it goes.
