Huzzah! (And Other Geeky Terms) – The GKN Weekly Update 9/16/14

Hello and Happy Greenpeace Day, hippies! Kidding, kidding, kidding. It’s just that every time I hear or see the word hippies, it conjures an image of Eric Cartman from South Park and it just cracks me up…

I’m a trained stage actor. Or was, at least. When I discovered voiceovers, that part of my life was basically over. I did some theater after that but I didn’t seek it out. Don’t get me wrong; I love doing theater, but the voiceover industry just seems to suit me better. There is one part of my theater life that I miss: performing at the New York Renaissance Faire!

TIP OF THE WEEK: I bring this up because for the first time in almost 20 years, I went back to visit. Some of my friends still work there! It was like visiting the town you grew up in after a long time away. It was different but the same, you know? Anyway, I was away for far too long and it was a very special time in my life. I met some amazing people that to this day I am proud to call friend. If you’ve never gone, go!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

Be your own self. Love what YOU love. Ray Bradbury

STUFF!: I just wanted to say thanks for all of the birthday wishes! Many of you called or sent personal messages and that means a lot to me. Since I’ll be at FaffCon I won’t be posting a GKN Weekly Update next week. You’ll have a nice big fat one next time!
