Thank you Colleen Van Tassell for your Testimonial for A Little Beacon Blog. She typed it in a Facebook comment reaction to ALBB’s coverage of this week’s City Council Meeting, where the City Planner Natalie answered Councilperson Carolyn’s question of how ADA would be addressed if some select houses were to be dubbed “Historic” by Mayor Lee Kyriacou, to which City Planner Natalie said that the ramps and such could go in the back, not to block the historic front porch aesthetic vibe Mayor Lee seems to be going for as he pushes for unexpecting homeowners to say yes to his possible mandate of ruling thier homes “Historic.”

Have been covering City Council Meetings for years, and writing blurbs about them. But you all seem to like them in video form best. Can’t tell you how frightening the concept was of coming onto video to deliver these recap reports. My friend and ALBB podcasting partner Brandon Lillard first suggested it, and I shut him down flat at first.

I majored in Communication in Media Studies in college, and was one class shy of completing my Creating Writing minor. Always wanted to work in magazines, but there is no pay in that to make a comfortable living, especially with children. Then blogging came along. As a person who finds comfort in both visual and written storytelling, and as a person who took to digital early, blogging was a natural fit.

Looking around me now, I find myself in the pages of a magazine that I always wanted to start and grow. It is indeed A Little Beacon Blog.
