This past week marked my debut as a staff blogger at
The Urbane Life blog.
The Urbane Life is a community blog for Urbane
Apartments, a growing group of apartment buildings, luxury lofts and condos in
metropolitan Detroit.
I find it fascinating to see how the crew at Urbane
Apartments has a real dedication to using “new media” to foster personal
connections with tenants, prospective tenants and other members of their local community.
I found The Urbane Life blog, commented on some posts there and began
communicating with a couple Urbane folks (mostly on Twitter).
I always thought there was a story there, but I
never imagined I might become a small piece of the story until approached about
writing stories featuring local people, places, events and issues for The
Urbane Life.
This week I chat with a Royal Oak, Michigan gallery
owner about Michigan Glass Month and list several metro Detroit glass art
exhibits. Check out Artisans play with fire during Michigan Glass Month at The
Urbane Life.
And remember to come back to Midwest Guest, where I’ll
continue to share stories about my travels around the Midwest and beyond!
