The Doctor McCoy Guide To Healing Sick Content

From the files of “Everything I Needed To Know In Life, I Learned From Star Trek” comes a new article from one of my fave marketing blogs, Copyblogger: “The Doctor McCoy Guide to Healing Sick Content.”
Even if the metaphor gets thinly stretched at times, it’s a pretty cute read — and hey, I’m always a [...]

Article: Wax on the Arm

I’ve got a new story up at Gamers With Jobs:  “Wax on the Arm“. Just a cute little story about my wedding day, and how fathers always make things better, even when they’re knocking stuff over and ruining rental tuxes. Enjoy!

Follow me on Facebook! And elsewhere…

A couple new additions to the site today. First off, I wanted to point out that you can now follow me and my work on Facebook, Linked In and Twitter via the links to the right. Feel free to ping me on any of them whenever you like!
I’ve also briefly updated my What You’re Saying [...]

Preserving Our Playable Past

Site updates, continued

Anyway, be sure to check out my new and improved About and Copywriting pages –  and most importantly, go learn about my Guarantees. (Yep, that’s right. I guarantee all my work. Not every writer offers that!)

www.LaraCrigger.com lives again!

No, your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you. I scrubbed the entire website. I ran into some major issues in upgrading, and seeing as how I hadn’t updated this sucker in almost a year, and I figured it would be best to start over again entirely.
So welcome back! Time to get started. Again.
