Ganja Greetings,

Wrote a great Cannabis Culture blog Cannabis Crafters Light Up Etsy about potheads who are selling toker themed trinkets on crafting site etsy. Think ebay for handmade. Sadly it’s not the words potheads are commenting on. But the images. Specifically my bio image. Nothing like writing weedy words all day, only to have people comment on a photo taken in haste. People demand the sexier selections. Even asking for them by description!
Being a bohemian budstud is difficult.

As a word guy, with only a minor in photography, it’s difficult for me to focus on images like I do with sentence structure. Currently almost all my work is completed on a netbook. Great computer, but the monitor is too tiny to tweak photos for extended periods of time. Solving this problem (new monitor, Vapor Central and Pixel Dream computer stations) will help immensely with photo, video and design work.
Partnering with Toronto’s best digital design team Pixel Dreams, I’ve been turning my interweb skills up to pay-per-view levels by working in their office and via osmosis. Recognizing their superb skills match mine, I’ve hired them to manage my marketing affairs.
During downtime (and there’s little of that) we’ve been brainstorming ideas on how to market me. New Mernagh logo is hot. More importantly a media kit is in first phase of development. Yes, there will be a new set of photos! Professionally taken.
Another area of image development is I’m working on my presentation skills by attending Toastmaster and Vaudeville classes in the fall. The feedback from my last CFRB radio appearance was fantastic. Getting better every time.
Anticipate me doing my own drive time show on Justin TV this fall. But that’s only a small part of the grand ganja scheme as we march towards my trial dates.

Have a wonderful weed filled day,

MM

    Budstud, eh? Ah, the things you do for the cause!

    Sorry, didn’t mean to offend. I work with a lot of images in the publishing that I do, so I notice such things. But the article was informative and the curios you found on Etsy intriguing.
