Can you believe that it will soon officially be summer? While that is really exciting, and I personally can’t wait to head to the beach, it also means several slow work months are ahead. Why does it always seem that everything practically comes to halt during the summer, yet you still have stories to pitch, goals to obtain and project deadlines to meet?

Unless you have literally been living under a rock with blaring headphones on for the past few weeks, you have probably heard that Amendment One passed in North Carolina. The amendment states that "Marriage between one man and one woman is the only domestic legal union that shall be valid or recognized." This amendment has been a huge statewide debate for the past several months, and no one had to look far to find campaign activity from both sides, particularly on social media.

Of course, since Mother’s Day is coming up on Sunday, we would also like to take a moment to recognize the mothers at MMI who are wonderful parents, as well as colleagues, who make our award-winning work possible. In the photo below, they are our video specialist Amy Davis (far left), mother to Charlotte, director of account management Michelle Fowler (second from left), mother to Graham, and account executive Erin Smith (far right), mother to Connor. Some of the best PR insight comes from these lovely ladies, and we have no doubt they will pass on the wisdom from their experiences to their children as well.

Lying to the media is never a good idea. My prescription for a crisis is to tell it all, tell it fast and tell the truth. Otherwise, you may find yourself embroiled in a real-life morality tale, with the whole world watching, just like John Edwards and his lackey, Andrew Young.

The past couple of weeks have been a whirlwind of events for the MMI team. Receptions, luncheons, award ceremonies and event kickoff parties – you name it, we’ve probably attended it.
