I wrote pre and post event PRs for 4 years for myself. While I know they were extremely valuable and worked to get the story out (most valuable for my sponsors), I feel like a complete turdburglar writing about myself in third person and quoting myself.
I am now hiring someone to do this for me. Luckily, I have friends in the public relations biz and they seem eager to write the trite PR stuff that, though stuffy to us insiders, is necessary in any semi-professional team.
I will soon have a spot on my website called "Lurch's Corner" or some goofy thing where fans can go to get a more personal, un-politically-correct story straight from the dummy's mouth.
Then there will be membership opportunities in the "Mazda Militia"...plan to throw some parties at some bars/nightclubs in rally towns/SEMA/Hot Import Nights...
I've got lots of goofy idears. And the Mazda guys like better 'n half of 'em.
