I’m happy to report that I am fully diving into online writing/editing and SEO. About.com has hired me to head up their Los Angeles site–an online hub for natives and those wishing to move to LA. I will be covering my usual art, film, restaurants, bars, clubs, political issues (local), spas, health and some extras for a wider audience (including content for families, people moving to LA, etc.). I am excited to be part of a high caliber network like About, which is owned by the New York Times Company. Ranking in the Top 50 web sites globally and boasting over 60 million monthly users, they’re giving me a great head start.

I will be blogging on there too. So, at the moment, between that, my occasional blogging for The Huffington Post, my continued daily posts for Hindi Hollywood (the blogosphere nexus of the Hollywood and Mumbai film worlds), and launching a new 360 European travel sector company, Route Three-Sixty with my former LA Times.com colleague Bettie Rinehart, my plate is full. I’ve decided to indefinitely hold off on blogging here. Once I get a handle on things, in a few months I may still post every so often. But for now, enjoy your summer!
