Another great interview with Daniel, this time in Brownstoner, a Brooklyn real estate blog.

Welcome to the Hot Seat, where we interview folks involved in Brooklyn real estate, architecture, development and the like. Introducing Daniel Friedman, an architect and designer. He was featured just last month on Apartment Therapy.

Click here for the full interview, and for more about his work, visit danielfriedmandesign.com. I’m just behind the scenes on this one, folks.

How sweet is this?!

Posted on October 16, 2011 | Leave a comment

And I mean that in both senses of the word. Woot!

In the last Blogologues, I performed this delightful little piece called Jesus doesn’t want me to shave my legs. And I hope there’s “Sex and the City” in hell.  Obviously, a deep, dramatic piece. The blogger came to see the show, and she wrote this lovely review. Jen and I are so pleased to find that the bloggers are enjoying what we’re doing with their pieces, rather than, say, being horrified.

I’ve included some nice quotes below, but please feel free to check out the full review here. Many thanks to Jess Schnall of the witty little bloggity-blog Alone…With Cats.

…My friends, my mom — of course she came — and I watched as the effervescent Alli performed one of my essays in a knee-slapper of a new show called “Blogologues,” which transforms blog fodder into monologues. I have yet to fully process how fucking cool this is — that a silly little rambling that I lazily launched into the interwebs expecting only a few folks to read came to life in front of an audience. For the first time as a blogger, instead of seeing LOLs, I heard actual laughs in response to my writing.

I had hoped that the actor playing me would be much prettier and thinner and more charming than I, and Alli didn’t disappoint.

If you live in New York City or on Earth, I highly recommend you check out this show, and I’m not just saying that to suck up to the producers because they picked my post and I hope they use more. I legitimately loved it and I’m sucking up.

I think we’ll be posting more blogger testimonials soon somewhere on our Lively Productions site. Get excited!
