OMG...Time is Flying By

Can you believe my FIFTH issue of HX is already on the streets. Gosh, timegoes by when you're working on a weekly magazine.

This issue is especially fun...Our Editor-in-Chief, Brandon Voss came up with the idea of bringing nine of New York City's nightlife kings and queens (literally) and bring them all into our offices on a Sunday morning on 35th Street and have a "last supper-esk" photo shoot. We had the hottest DJs. Go-Gos, Drag Queens, Promoters and more!

Helloooo Docta!!

New Gig at HX!

I interviewed for this position a little over two months ago. Initially, they went with another candidate who only a month on the job, walked out. HA! The Creative Director dropped me an email asking if I wanted to freelance for the time being, I accepted and after my two days there...was called on an over-paid temp assignment at Edelman. That assignment was only for three weeks. Half way through, I received an email from the CEO of HX asking me to contact him after my assignment. I did just that. I met with the CEO on Monday morning and that evening was hired as Art Director.

BEHOLD!!! My first issue of HX, the Totally Biased Politically Incorrect Party Paper! It's tons of fun and I think I'm really going to enjoy my stay there.

Besides HX, I also work on The New York Blade, The Gay Life Expo, The Gay Travel Expo and The Gay Erotic Expo.

My Signature Cellos at Williams-Sonoma

I earned my nick-name, "Cello John" at Williams-Sonoma in New York City about this time last year for two reasons: There's another John there, who works in stock and because I started making amazing, high-end cellos. Most people thought this was a stroke of genius but I just put myself in the place of the gift receiver. Before I make any high end gift collection...I say to myself, "What would I like to
get"?

A year later, my assistant manager Joe and I have come up with a Signature Cello Catalog that we will promote to our customers this holiday season. Above are some
of our prototypes:

My personal favorite, of course is the "Baking with Martha"

Look at me on MARTHA!!

I was yet again on the Martha Stewart Show back in October. I came across the video feed in her archieves.

Look at me in the blue shirt =)

So True...
