The range of human experiences, human nature and human behavior that I deal with in one form or another is vast.
In the past month I've worked on pitches for the Oprah Winfrey show with an actress, budding celebrity chef, and Endeavor Talent and Literary Agency. I talked to an agent at Endeavor and a producer at Scott Sternberg productions about a cooking show. I exchanged emails with my friend Diana Buja who works in Burundi on a goat and agricultural rehabilitation project about a low-cost, efficient project that could aid in increasing food security in one of the poorest countries in the world. I'm working on articles about the history of couscous (spun off from the food lecture I wrote for UCLA Fowler Museum's Art of Being Tuareg Exhbition), African brain drain and brain circulation, and a comparative study of Mexican salsas and Algerian salsas (related to my interest The Mexican Kitchen's Islamic Connection ). This week I'm focusing on finishing a public and media relations outline, media kit and PowerPoint presentations for a humanitarian aid organization. There's more, but this post is getting a bit tedious. On the other hand I started this blog to keep in touch with my various networks and also to document my activities.
I can't stress enough that this is not a general interest blog at all. It only makes sense to people in my various networks.
