My Time with the Psychic Medium Linda Lauren- Definate Balfour Reporting…

 I had the pleasure of meeting a celebrity that happens to play within Second Life, Linda Lauren. 

For those that don’t know who she is, she’s a psychic medium that has numerous accomplishments including art, writing, energy consultant, and has been trademarked as the Travel Psychic for her talent in travel readings. She has a sim and has devoted it to her real life lifestyle and selling products to help those needing them!

Linda Lauren is one of the most interesting people you can find right here at The SL Enquirer, having her own column where she writes and you can read her words of wisdom, but when I found out she was more than another writer I had to meet her for myself.

Little Mary’s: More Than Pixels & Secondlife- Definate Balfour Reporting…

Often, when I take an assignment I begin with some sort of idea of what I’m going to cover, but in this case my assignment originally began in a pursuit for something  business related, but during a conversation the sentence got uttered to me, ’You really should check into Little Mary’s, they got a unique story.’ With a nod I did just that and I contacted Ron Farslider, one of the owners of Little Mary’s. With a teleport and a conversation I was left with a smile and thought on how much Second Life© and first life cross over. Here’s that conversation with Mr. Farslider, the story of Little Mary’s, and why you should take yourself over for a visit.

M&M Marketing: Offering Businesses Owner A Helping Hand- Definate Balfour Reporting…

M&M Marketing help business owners get more exposure, this is extremely helpful when you, the business owner, are not sure which avenue to take or even names of professionals  to contact for help. In a  virtual world where networking is key and so little are willing to help outside of their immediate friends, marketing can be hard to do unless you are  a driven person and not willing to take no for an answer.  It’s nice to know that there is a company willing to work hand and hand with you, so I wanted to share M&M Marketing with SLE readers.

I found myself at a beautiful home and headquarters of M&M Marketing. Mark Ussy greeted me warmly and after finding a nice spot at his meeting table we began our conversation about him, his company, and what it can do for those interested in his services.

SL Business: How’d ya get so successful?- Definate Balfour Reporting...

: 

 

Recently I  sat down with an innovator in Second Life; she teaches those who want to provide for others. It’s an awesome thing to do to provide such a service to residents in the virtual world. Evelyn Enterprise is a company formed from one single question, ‘How'd your business get so successful?’ This is a question inquiring minds want to know. I spoke to the owner, Evelyn Johnson, and ask some questions and learned about what she has to offer and even what got her own business started.

Spring Shopping Blues? Shop Vintage!- Definate Balfour Reporting...

When Spring time comes, we trade our coats and mittens for something to show off that inch more of skin. Why not do it with a vintage flare? Nothing screams more fun, love, and spring time to me then floral prints, shorts, and dresses.

 I was honored to meet Nova Monroe during one of my shopping trips to get ready for spring. Her style and shop is the epitome of spring.

I don’t consider myself a fashionista, I don’t  even consider myself a guru of fashion, but I do consider myself, my tastes, and likes the same as the girl next door. With that in mind, that doesn't mean I don’t want some style to my jeans, dresses, and other apparel I rock. Whoever said average had to mean plain and boring? Besides, last I knew I was a big girl dressing myself.

Her name alone, Nova Monroe, sets my mind to Marilyn Monroe, 50’s and 60’s style, vintage, and laid-back comfortable. Meeting her face to face, I was completely blown away by her style. The things she sells has a flare of unique and significance in their own right. I could tell this was a woman of my own heart, every piece she molded and crafted was personal and a reflection of herself. This chick is on to something, so I had to sit down with her for an SLE interview. I wanted to know about her and  wanted to share her with the world as much as I could. It interested me to know more about how she handles her business.

Dating in Second Life© - Definate Balfour Reporting…

I’ve done it, you’ve most likely done it, and honestly I really don’t know of too many who haven’t done it. What is ‘it’ you might be wondering?  Dating is ‘it’!

You roam the grid and you see it happening all the time, partnerships, engagements, and even people that have found love beyond the pixel, but all these things began the same way, dating. I wanted to know about others’ experiences, what they look for, and any advice that they may be able to provide. What other way to do this than asking avatars?

I began my journey to answer these questions by simply asking them. I came up with basic questions for friends, family, and even strangers to make things more even. I wanted unbiased answers, things that may not have been told to me by friends and family.

What I asked were the following:
