If you haven’t read on Twitter or Facebook, PearlyWrites has added a new Pearl to our family of Pearls! My husband and I welcomed to the world on Jan. 14, our new baby daughter Mollie Pearl. She is one beautiful little girl and this has been the most incredible experience we could have wished for. As Mollie grows up we can now tell her she is our Pearl and will have to learn how to write. 
(Gotta keep the family business going!)
But seriously, Mollie is our first child and we are absolutely in love! She is named after my husband’s grandmother Mollie and my grandmother Pearl, both who passed away in 2007 and were amazing, supportive, loving, independent and smart women. We miss them both very much and had no doubt if we had a daughter we would be naming her after these two incredible women.
Watching her grow and learn in such a little amount of time has been amazing. Welcome to world Mollie Pearl and welcome to the PearlyWrites family! 
You have lots of online love from all your mommy’s Facebook and Twitter connections, it has been an outpouring of love! Thank you and we look forward to sharing even more life changing events with you.

This past weekend I attended AVN/AEE 2009 to be a panelist in a seminar to discuss adult online marketing in Las Vegas at the Sands Expo Center. I was on the panel with moderator LAJ from YNOT, Babeland, SugarDVD and Man About Town. Not only did I share the panel with some amazing companies and individuals, our room was filled and people were standing against the walls! It was quite a picture that I wish I could have taken to share with you.
I was joking all week on Twitter that I wanted to throw candy as when I was a teacher, I would throw candy to keep the students interest. I didn’t throw candy as the information we all were discussing kept the interest of all attendees. We discussed branding, affiliate marketing, driving traffic (paid and natural), Organic SEO, copywriting, interaction, customer service, blogging, and natural online marketing techniques. After the seminar was over, the response was amazing from the attendees thanking us and wanting to connect even further. Thank you to AVN for allowing PearlyWrites to be a part of the Part 1: Staking Your Claim on the Web.
To add to our experience at AVN/AEE, I finally got to meet my cousin who is the owner of Wicked Pictures. I want to thank him for taking the time to speak with us during his very busy schedule. It was great to finally connect to a family member and appreciate the time he took with us.
And for the comedy part of the weekend, I had a fan club! One guy asked if he could take a pic with me thinking I was some spokesmodel for a company selling a product. I told him I wasn’t but thank you for the compliment and we took a pic anyway. Then later on I was trying on some clothing (over my own clothing) and the same two men were there snapping away and there were now about 7 men all together recording and snapping away. So if you find me on YouTube or Flickr, please let me know. The least I can do is link to it and create some natural link exchanges.

Happy New Year from PearlyWrites, LLC!
As you can see we have given our site a brand new facelift with sleek, slender design and bows and PEARLS all wrapped up into one nice package. If you have ever seen our print marketing collateral (which isn’t sent out very much), you will now see a fully branded company. Welcome to PearlyWrites, LLC! We have come a long way baby and want to thank everyone who has made it possible to allow PW to continue to grow.
Thank you to my family who has been supportive of me these past few years and my dreams of being an online business woman entrepreneur. My husband who hides behind the scenes of PearlyWrites but is an integral part of our online business, thank you (now get back to work!).
Thank you to friends and business friendships who have been there in support and spirit. The connections we have made have been hugely important this year.
Thank you to Josh Gilmore for branding PearlyWrites, LLC. For clients branding, it comes natural to me, but for my own business, it was a little harder to decide. Josh, thank you!
Thank you to Mitch for joining me in the rubber room. (Um, the secret is out, the rubber room wasn’t as fun as we both thought…)
Thank you to all PearlyWrites’ contractors for a wonderful year and looking forward to even more fun in 2009! Thank you to Josh, Mitch, Nicole, Renee, Andrew, Ralph, Alexis, Robin, Dennis, and David. We’ve all come a long way together and as individuals and I am so fortunate to have connected with you all. You Rock!
Thank you to Basecamp for allowing us to work proficiently as an online marketing company. In that case, thank you to Vonage, Skype and email! Without you, our virtual company would not be possible.
Thank you to Nina Myers who has created SimpleApple.com with me to help self-published writers and Indie Artists get their name and product out on the Web.
AND Thank you to every person I have connected to on Twitter aka Tweeps! Social Media has opened up new doorways in my life and business and I look forward to another wonderful year of making even more connections and Tweeting with you!
Happy New Year! PW is going to ROCK in 2009!

With great excitement, I like to tell you about a pre-launch of Simple Apple. Simple Apple is a new site where myself, Lisa and Nina Myers of The Best Apple will be offering Web/Blog design services and online marketing services including coaching and support to self-published writers, authors, and Indie artists.
An ongoing joke with a few of PearlyWrites’ contractors is “Lisa supports the Indie community.” My ultimate goal is to be able to sponsor a few of our contractors who are amazing rock bands bands like 20 Minutes to Park. Now writers who need help marketing their book or e-book can contact the Simple Apple or an Indie artist needing help marketing their product. We are here to help!
A little know fact about me is I was once a musician, singer and a dancer. Before starting PearlyWrites, I was very involved in the arts. I own a Ebony Baby Grand Piano, I privately taught over 150 children to sing Hebrew and it is time to get back to my roots and help others in the art community. Collaborating with Nina has been an on going discussion and we are happy to say Simple Apple will be officially launching in the new year.
Simple Apple, Simple Solutions
Happy New Year!
