B’s Virginia Woolf-inspired Ode to Nigeria in Toronto Standard Online Mag

And so King Hot Dog decreed that this might be the home of HOT DOG COURT
And the people rejoiced and went for a celebratory dip in the mustard pool.*
AND SO LIKE PICASSO and BLUE and his BLUE PERIOD— B has been feeling very inspired by hot dogs lately and felt this Tumble was the venue in with to explore that inspiration. And so here we are and now you’re all caught up.
And then she felt like she wanted to use it again. And there was LIFT OFF.

And then B didn’t use her Tumblr for a very long time. And TIME PASSED.
The Real Big Thing

My Life On The Beach
Hello there!
It’s your trusty neighbourhood journalist and producer again… but wait– Hello? Can you hear me from all the way down here?
You see, I’m not in Toronto any longer. I decided to leave my beloved job at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation behind and move down to Barbados to become a freelancer.
Here’s why: My wonderful man-friend accepted a job working for an NGO in the Caribbean. And with the idea to use this time to build up my writing/production portfolio, and learn how to surf (!), I moved down here to join him for a year or so.
As I write this to you, I am looking out of our window that fronts onto the beach, and there’s a constant roll of ocean waves in the background. Try not to be jealous. In all seriousness, it’s not a total paradise: This region has a struggling economy, very few natural resources, and it fights to control raging health and social issues like widespread obesity, chronic disease, and HIV. I am hoping to learn about the many sides of this part of the world, not just the sliver that most tourists get to see.
Anyhow, I just wanted to update my site to let you know about my move, and to give you the heads up that I’m ready and raring to provide you with all sorts of content: Stuff that has to do with my adjustment moving down South; Fantastic and surprising travel stories I come across in my journeys; Ideas that maybe even have NOTHING to do with my being down here. I’m up for it all.
And I’m ready to provide it to you with my characteristic “whimsy” (that’s a quote!)… and reliability, too.
I’ll post the best of my work on the sidebar as it comes along. I am keeping a blog about my experience here. And in the meantime, please follow me on Twitter… and get in touch if you have a project in mind that we should work on together.
Thanks so much.
Well, there it is.
I like tumbling. And also rumbling. And rambling. And fumbling. And tampering. And once I went to Tampa, Florida, when I was small. That is all.
My Life as a Web Experiment
This site was created as part of an article for the National Post about how to become the Number One Brianna Goldberg (On The Internet).
Like a diligent little reporter, I snatched up briannagoldberg.com and put up what was essentially an online business card… until I realized it was a great opportunity to create a nice online reputation for this particular Brianna Goldberg. And all in the name of my assignment!
Since then I’ve been freelancing and producing at CBC Radio 1 and 2 in Toronto… and realizing that I really need to get something fantastic together on good ole’ BriannaGoldberg.com to tempt you with more of my written and audio fancies. But that will all come soon enough.
In the meantime, please feel free to poke around in the links widget to the right. You’ll find speedy directions to my LinkedIn profile, some of my National Post articles, some CBC Radio 2 blogs I’ve toiled away on, and a less professional (but significantly more hilarious) blog that details the whole Number One Brianna Goldberg Experience.
Or, if you want to find out more about The Earnestness Movement I founded, click the tab up top.
Thanks so much, and I’ll be back soon to blurb about some other projects I’m working on!
