Hello Friends and Fellow Creative Blog Community…welcome to a new series titled “Subscriber Interview“.

 my last interviewee: One Belle Of A Blog with (Kristina)

Subscriber Interview is a series on my blog where I, Richardo the writer/host of the blog talks and interviews his subscribers each week and find out a little more about them and what they do.  It’s designed to keep the blogging community alive and also show others who is out there in the blog universe. Without no further ado, here we go.

Today I get to interview the sexy and creative lady of art Alicia in which is one of my cool subscriber,  in which I love her work and would love to work with on a small project. She blogs about her abstract artwork and paintings and has a blog at http://myzuriart.wordpress.com “Zuri Art“.  She has a very great style for colors and blends and when I discovered her blog, I was very impressed.  I wished I could paint and do cool things too. 🙂 I hope you go and check her out.

My New York City Lifestyle: Work Play Work Again – [#MNYCL]

RikLeave a comment

My New York City Lifestyle - rawmultimedia

I work hard and I play even harder.  The life in New York City as many thinks is exciting all the times coming from I guess a non fun town or a smaller location, but it can get a bit boring.  I guess that’s why we still have to fly out to LA, Miami or Europe to continue our fun or just to be refreshed.  But regardless, whether sun or rain, we all got to work here.  You can living the high life one day, then the next, you get hit with some unexpected, then again that’s life.  More so, it’s the New York City life.

I have been really getting my photography juices flowing.  I haven’t really gotten to put my creativity and my new camera lens to the test as yet, and in dire need to do so.  I will be posting and showcasing my past best works as I fine tune and create the images of greatness that haunt me everywhere I go, in which I have captured but wait patiently to share with others.

I have been offered a few gigs lately to do odd jobs with my company, and it really has taken me from my projects a bit, but with the money I make from the odd jobs shall fund my independent projects in which needs much funding and also for me to possibly pay others to help me execute my vision with my wanted production value.  So I work hard to work harder once the money comes around.

I must admit, when the opportunities come, they come in bulk and it’s very important to choose your projects wisely, for it’s not all about quantity but the quality of who you work with.  As I said before, New York City is a very competitive  atmosphere, and even the people you work with could plot against you by you increasing their value and you value is at a standstill or goes down.  So I think and act very carefully.  But you won’t ever win without taking risks,

I have been back to playing video games lately.  I have found a new time slot to get it in and some Netflix and HBOGO.  I am so excited about that.  As my stress level increases I need something to bring it back down.  I also have a two small micro vacation in the works in the coming weeks in June.  I might take a little trip or a long ride somewhere.  Mostly all I think I need is some good, WiFi, Netflix, yummy food, and a BIG BED.

How are you doing these days?  What is your city life-like?

I really don’t know how to say it, but I am very appreciative for all the support and followers aka “blog ninjas” that came by my blog in the past two weeks.  I am happy to see others passionate writers and I have also visited many blogs to meet new friends.  It’s quite simply a community and great people here on WordPress, and what you put in is what you get.  I have some really great dynamic posts coming up soon, via I want them to be strictly awesome, for it will be more helpful and share worthy than my regular personal or life posts.

I have seen some new subscribers, and just want to welcome all the ladies, BIG HUG, and if you are a guy a manly handshake, (I don’t think we should be hugging lol) but if you are up for a hug, what the hell.

I have been busy as of late, working 3 jobs and creating a media network, so if you see me pass by your blog, trust me I am a ninja.  I stealthy got there and read, liked, even left some comments.  I am trying to reach everyone I can, and see and read all the interesting things that’s going on, but it’s super hard.  But I go hard, so I should be fine.  I collecting some crazy super awesome photos, so be ready for those coming soon.

Anyways I am rambling.  I just want to say thanks you to all my new friends and also for subscribing to my blog, watch out and check your email, twitter or facebook, for I might be requesting to do an interview with you for my weekly Subscriber Interview series, every friday (well not every, but I try though) in which I interview one of my subscribers and introduce them to the world on my blog.

PS: If you are a new follower, just know I post a post ONCE every day as the PROJECT 365 challenge I have going on with PostADay2012.  So your email might get filled up, but don’t you worry, I post awesome cool easy to read stuff.  But I try my best to stick to only one post, but on occasions I might do 2 or so.  Very rarely though.

Happy Blogging

Thanks for reading, liking, and commenting.
