my little black book, opened up

Ten years. Ten thousand brand contacts. All mine — now yours.

Every PR rep, agency, hotel and tourism board I've pitched, worked with, or been ghosted by — with my own notes on who actually replies.

An open leather rolodex of handwritten contact cards on a wooden desk
the actual one. still on my desk.

I started this as a spreadsheet so I'd stop losing people.

My first pitch went to an info@ address and vanished. So I started writing down every name, every reply, every "circle back in Q3."

A decade later that spreadsheet had 10,000 rows. Friends kept asking me for "just one contact." So I cleaned it up and opened it to every creator who wants a head start.
