In Charge Social Media and Brand Buzz Network are excited to announce their newest members to the BBN Team 

The Brand Buzz Network (BBN) is owned and operated by In Charge Social Media, LLC, a social media start-up and management company with offices in Atlanta, South Florida and New York. Originally founded by Lisa Samples, from Life with Lisa, BBN has been connecting brands and bloggers since 2009.

Lisa Samples currently lives in Atlanta with her husband and two sons. With over 15 years working as an executive in "Corporate America" she finally left to pursue working her social media projects full time in January 2012. You can find her writing on Life with Lisa about travel, Atlanta, food/recipes, and other topics of interest. She is also a writer for Let's Play, a Dr Pepper Snapple Group (site that encourages kids and families to get active nationwide) and she is a regular contributor on SheSpeaks.com. Lisa has been featured on CNN Money, CBS Better Mornings Atlanta, and various other media outlets and has done consulting for brands such as Ford, Xbox, Dove, and more. She is currently the CEO and President of In Charge Social Media.

In Charge Social Media, LLC has recently decided to grow the Brand Buzz Network (BBN) and its team to help grow resources for both Bloggers & Brands. 

The newly appointed Community Manager, Deb Thompson is “living the dream” in a small northern Michigan town with her husband and teen daughter. She also has an adult son that flew the nest last year. She quit the corporate grind last year to pursue the things she loves: travel, food & wine, photography, and social media. She shares the story of her crazy life at JustShortofCrazy.com and has been a guest blogger at i.seekissimmee.com and hotelcoupons.com. She loves the opportunities that social media provides for people to live life on their own terms.

Deb has worked as a Campaign Lead for brands such as Sara Lee, Motorola, Meredith, Equal, and Silk when she isn't been busy blogging or spending time with her family.

The newly appointed Managing Editor, VS Grenier is an award-winning children's author, founder & owner of Stories for Children Publishing, LLC, Partner of The World of Ink Network, award-winning editor-in-chief of Stories for Children Magazine and chief editor for Halo Publishing, Int; as well as the host of the blog talk radio shows Stories for Children, The Writing Mama, Families Matter and What is Success. A California girl at heart and former fashion buyer (for companies such as Brighton Collectibles, Frederick's of Hollywood, and Torrid/Hot Topic), Grenier lives in Southern Utah with her supportive husband, their three children and the family's miniature schnauzer Taz.

The newly appointed Blogger Select Manager, Shasta Walton is a single mom to four amazing kids. She is also the owner of Faithfully Free, a personal blog where she shares her joys, struggles, and everything in between. Shasta is currently going back to school for Public Relations, and longs to move to California or New York. She has a passion for giving back, and hopes to one day serve as a missionary overseas as well.
Her love for social media began with her first Facebook food fight, and she hasn’t looked back. Sharing the things that matter to her with people from around the world, is one of her favorite things to do, especially when she’s doing good and helping others in the process. Shasta has had the pleasure of writing for I.See.Kissimmee, Day-Timer Moms, and Disney Events.

The BBN also has some exciting news about their new feature for bloggers & brands – they are now hosting a new Portfolio Service where blogger's media kits will be accessible to PR/Companies according to niche.

The Writing Mama Interview with author Judy Snider     VS: What do you do to help balance your writing life with your family life? Judy: It is easier now that my kids are in their 20’s and out of the home. I get up very early, and some of the best writing I do is in a sunny place with a glass of water or coffee and my silly cats nearby. When my oldest was a baby, I took a write-away-course, and would write when he took his naps. Some of my best writing was at a table while I waited in those days for them at parties, video arcades, etc.  I work out of my home on projects, so working with my sister on our latest book, and the phone usually did Cady Driver, our illustrator. VS: How long have you been writing? Judy: I wrote my...

Interview Friday with author Frances Pauli

Frances Pauli was born and raised in Washington State . She grew up with a love of reading and storytelling, and was introduced to Science Fiction and Fantasy at an early age through the books kept and read by her father. Though she always held aspirations to be a writer, she chose to obtain her Bachelor’s degree in visual arts. The stories, however, had other plans for her. By the time she entered her thirties, they were no longer content existing solely in her head. Compelled to free them, she set aside her easel and began to write in earnest. Her original love of Speculative fiction combined with her covert excursions into the Romance section led her into the realms of Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Romance, where she finds herself quite comfortable. Her fascination with Science Fiction and a growing passion for the NASA channel divert her happily into tales of the far future, alternate dimensions, and the wonders of space, usually with at least a touch of romance. Frances current...
