When I think about the presence of women and people of color in the year of film in 2012, I am most impressed by the depiction of strong female heroines taking the lead in mainstream movies…The world of indie film showcased women in unconventional love stories…My top ten list of my personal favorite films (Not necessarily “the best”—just ones that I enjoyed the most for a variety of reasons) previously reviewed on Medium Rare (By myself or other writers) in 2012 are movies directed, written, and/or produced by women and people of color and are just a small sampling of the meaningful and entertaining work they’ve brought to us this year.

I was interviewed for I AM PR Agency‘s Industry Spotlight by one of my former writers at Pink and Black Magazine, Lawanda Johnson. We talked about how I got my start in writing and in entertainment, my blog, interning at Hollywood Life and meeting celebrities, what Audrey Magazine is all about, and a lot more. It was very cool to be on the other side of what I do! Thank you so much Lawanda and I AM PR for featuring me!

Since we live in a digital age, I do think being an active blogger has helped me build my online presence. When I go to networking events and when I meet new people, it’s one of the ways I get people to remember me. Just like in the way there are YouTube stars, I think it’s possible for anyone with a blog—with a focus and is updated regularly—to make a career out of it somehow.
