Had a little crisis to tend to in the interim, and while it was a whole lot of nothing, it knocked me out for a while. Things are good. I'm no longer in newspaper journalism — and while I miss the deadlines, the adrenalin, the post-deadline camaraderie (well, not the booze part) and the satisfaction of doing great work, I don't miss the hours, the politics, the nearsightedness and the constant fear of another round of individual stealth layoffs as most of the industry circles the drain. I'm in marketing for a well-known faith-based nonprofit these days (it even has its own popular theme song, and it appears I've become a brand expert), still living in Clearwater, and heavily involved in ministry and in my daughter's life. I've gone through quite the metamorphosis, it appears, whether it's shifting to daylight hours, reconnecting with my core beliefs, or living a cause. Or knowing when to use that stupid Oxford comma I just threw in. And the process (for all of us, really) never ends, and won't until the day six people carry us out in boxes.<div><br></div><div>And yes, I see I just hit "reply," too, but I don't mind. Wouldn't be the first time I opened my mouth and apologized later, I'm sure.... and whomever it was who said we should take the one-on-ones off the list, I'm gonna pull rank this one time. Everyone probably ought to know who I am, anyway, right? :)<br><div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">

It's an annex from<a href="http://www.fema.gov/media-library/assets/documents/34369" target="_blank"> FEMA's Standard Operating Procedures</a> for emergency support, and it addresses the use of social media and websites across different agencies to streamline working together under a common message -- something CAP inherently lacks. Reading through and understanding this will help us grow as an organization. There's a good analysis from Hurricane Sandy too. <br>
<br>This document came up during a discussion this week with the social media and content managers across federal agencies in response to the inappropriate "help me, I'm poor" tweet that came from FAFSA. You may have seen it in the news ...<u></u><u></u></p>
