Hurray for the Musical Mom

One of my favorite bloggers — and favorite people — is Alexandra Weber Morales.

I worked with Alexa at Miller Freeman in the mid-1990s, when she was editor of Diagnostic Imaging America Latina; she then succeeded Larry O’Brien as editor of Software Development Magazine. She was laid off in December 2005, when her magazine was shuttered.

In addition to being a strong writer and editor, Alexa is a gifted musician: Stop what you’re doing and buy her 2004 CD, Jazzmérica, right now. After being laid off, Alexa picked herself up, dusted herself off, and has engaged her musical career with an incredible passion, and enviable success.

However, the item that I want to call attention to is a series of video blog posts that Alexa’s been making since February, “Tips for Musical Moms.” There are 13 episodes so far. Forget about Lonelygirl15; this is the real deal. When you get a few free minutes, you should watch ’em. You’ll be glad you did.
