Crusader Cat
If you read the beginning (7.1) of this interview you know that Cat Morley has been a few places and done a few things in her career as a World Designer. If you came to this week’s open comment night, you also know that Cat had a major role in Wizard of OZ written just for her.
Tonight a little more about the many things Cat has had going on in her life.
Cat, how did you end up as a blogger?
Iââ¬â¢m a crusader with a hot spirit. When LogoWorks started showcasing logos that were remarkably similar to many, many other designers’ logos, I was swept into blogging along with others. Of course there were some bits that had to be in place first. I just happened to be test driving blogger for a client when it all came about.
Cat tells the story of how she started to blog on Creative Latitude. It’s called Blogs, Podcasts and all that stuff.
Here’s how the story starts . . .
If you asked me a month ago about spending my precious time updating an industry or personal blog, Iââ¬â¢d say, “Never!” Sure, I have a business blog (now sadly ignored) which Iââ¬â¢ve spent time on, but Iââ¬â¢ve always pooh-pooed jumping in and keeping a blog just for the love of it.
Many times on “The About,” (About.com’s graphic design forum) Iââ¬â¢ve passed a verbal grin in Chris Gee’s direction when he went on and on about the wonders and power of blogging on his blog thepreparedmind.com. Not for me. I felt I had better things to do with my spare time.
I’m really glad she changed her mind.
Next: wait until you hear about Cat and the Queen of England!
