Kill me now!

Image
Lawrence Fisher just wrote a funny book all about the world of dating. The author spends his time trying to find the ONE, his soulmate, that special someone that he will spend the rest of his life with. We have conducted a short interview with him: Your book is about the dates of a man in his late 40's. Why did you choose the title: "Kill me now!"? That is an excellent question. The difference between a good question and an excellent question is that with a good question you have to think of an answer and with an excellent question, you already thought of the question and have an answer on hand! The book was initially titled “World of Dating from a man’s perspective.” Not sure how many people would be enticed by that. I would not want to read it. However I was on a date with a woman who I referred to as Ms Motor Mouth in my book and I was just waiting for Scotty to beam me out of there because I was bored out of mind and the title just popped into my head. ...

GONZO Marketing

Image
Frederic Gonzalo lives in the beautiful Quebec City, in Canada. He has worked in the travel industry for 18 years. Early 2012, he started his own business, GONZO Marketing . We have conducted a short interview with him. Why did you name your business 'Gonzo' and not 'gonzalo'? Is there a story behind the name? With my family name being "Gonzalo", I received many nicknames through the years. But back in high school, there was a McDonald's promotion linked to the Muppet Show Movie, featuring baby Miss Piggy, baby Fuzzy Bear and, you guessed it: baby Gonzo. After doing something I shouldn't have in class, a teacher screamed at me saying "Baby Gonzo, time to shut up!". Needless to say, it stuck with me and I kinda like it, too! When I started my business a little over a year ago, I did not want to go with a generic term and wanted to have a personal twist. Gonzo Marketing, it became! How did you gather your knowledge in t...

Daddy's Little Girl

Image
Revenge films are extremely popular, no doubt due to the catharsis they offer the viewer. It’s classic tension and release of ire by proxy. When presented one-dimensionally they are cartoonish and flat but when they contain the complex range of emotions that exist in real life, tales of this genre are compelling and human. They also become extremely popular, as in the case of Australian film Daddy’s Little Girl . Director Chris Sun’s depiction of a father’s investigation and pursuit of retribution for his child’s murder garnered massive praise from groups like the ASIN (Australian Screen Industry Network Awards) and PollyGrind Underground Film Festival of Las Vegas, as well as others. Recognized for Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Cinematographer, Best Producer, and receiving the Grand Jury Prize, nearly every aspect of this film was noted for excellence. In terms of story, the bridge between the vengeful patriarch of this family and the murderer is the distraught/angry teen po...

Celeste Thorson is a professional actress and writer living on Los Angeles, California. We had the opportunity to conduct an interview with her: While you have been working with a lot of photographers, which kind of photographers do you like to work with the most? I love working with creative conceptual photographers that enjoy collaborating on out of the box ideas. I also have a great time shooting fashion, because the wardrobe is so fun. Sometimes, when I want a change of pace I shoot with alternative photographers for a walk on the wild side. What is your most memorable childhood memories? I used to love hiking through the wilderness as a child, collecting crystals, rocks and exploring old copper mines. I would always get so excited when I found agates or crystals during my hikes, it was like stumbling on buried treasure. Given if there is a time-machine, which period of your life would you want to return to and why? It would be priceless to ret...

Raising and Managing Capital - Interview with Daniel K. Desta

Daniel Desta (Los Angeles, US) assists small business owners with raising capital. We have conducted a short interview with him: How and when did you know that being an Entrepreneur would become your calling in life? I think it all started when I was working a traditional 9-5 job and knew that God did not create me to just be ordinary. It was then that I started researching what an Entrepreneur was, and at the top of the list was Bill Gates at that time. His story of dropping out of school and working out of his garage to turn Microsoft into what it is today helped make the decision of me venturing into starting my own business. In today's society, how does it feel to be an Entrepreneur? It feels amazing. I believe that Entrepreneurship is thriving more then ever in our current economical climate.You can clearly see that people who have a tremendous amount of experience are unable to find any stable and secure jobs, which in turn forces them to create the j...
