Donna Porter commented on the blog post 'Keeping Silent about Rape'
"I wondered how this man could be head of the IMF with his history. This sheds some light on it but I hold others outside of France accountable too in regard to their apathy regarding his character and judgement. Thanks for sharing your story."

"Thank you for the warm welcome Julie! I'm looking forward to it, so a delay is not for lack of interest but things are rather hectic right now. Also, I can't wait to read "Beginning a Life at 50" ...I'm a late bloomer…"

"Hi Donna, It seems we "met" or crossed paths as your profile and name seem familiar but I had taken a long hiatus and I have the memory span of a guppie at times.
Otherwise, someone on Facebook brought attention (positive that…"

Profile Information
- Who I am:
- Hi! This is the I'm-overtired-lemme-get-this-done version and given my eclectic nature, profiles are not my friend. The feeling is mutual. Meanwhile...
Currently, I cover the social media/internet and local beats at Yahoo! News as well as write on trending topics, both here and at various outlets. Meanwhile I'm building my own news/mag publication and am focused on content curation.
Most of my relevant professional experience is available on LinkedIn -- encompassing a background not limited to small business, advocacy, marketing, health and technology. I'm also a buzz hunter by nature and subject to writing fluff -- it often pays better.
Mostly I lack writing in my favored creative genres (given the news focus) , both poetry and satire.
My life experience is as comic as it is tragic and I enjoy combining the two. So, yes, there is a book that pleads to be written as well.
Other things I'm passionate about: social media, women entrepreneurs/writers, media bias, patient & consumer advocacy, relationships (the good, bad, & ugly -- From "I do" to "until death do us part" -- and the seedy and sentimental road in-between), self-help & growth.
I know I've forgotten some things.
Lastly, I look forward to growing as both a writer and person from you. Besides, this must be an improvement over Facebook, no?
This is a crazy week, so I'll return for edits.
- Books I've written, anthologies I've contributed to, and any scripts or plays I've authored:

I finished two books this year and I am just going as hard as I can, so when I read kind words like yours, I smile from ear to ear. I did check your AC profile and we did cross paths I think because you were on my faves list. I know, so many people and so little time to read, it is so easy to forget. So, this time I subscribed. Thanks again for your comments! Donna
