Welcome to 2018! Thanks for faithfully reading my Onicia Updates and for encouraging me on this journey towards world domination. Wait. What? Oh, yeah. I grew up on Spice Girls, girl power, and all the Disney princesses; ruling the world was always the end goal.

Now that you’re up to speed, I’d like to reveal my plans for 2018. This year, I would like to collaborate more. There’s an African proverb that says “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” I want to go far! To do that, I’m kindly asking you to show me all the funny, inspirational, dedicated, unique, community-minded people. Whether for entertainment, education, or professional connections, I just want to meet more interesting people.

This month, I have a few shows coming up, The Stoop is back, and I wrote some cool articles last month. Also, I added a new feature to my newsletter. Check out these 10 things I’m fangirlin’ for.

So, will you help me go far and achieve world domination*? That’s all I gotta say today. Got something I should see or someone I should collaborate with? Email me or shout at me on Twitter.
