so, you’re new here? welcome!

 

Hey there, I’m Melissa Walker Horn, but they call me Suger around here—just your basic coffee-drinking, wine-loving millennial with a thing for ya fiction, sneakers and graphic tees. I’ve been calling myself your straight-talking interwebs BFF for over a decade.

Who am I? Who knows. I’ll figure that out at some point, I’m sure. But as far as what I do, I’m a blogger, photographer and owner of Chalkboard Digital, a social media and digital marketing agency where we make stuff for the internet. I’ve been focusing on product photography lately, but we have an expert team to help you do anything you need to do online. 

What is this place? This is suger coat it, my business lifestyle blog about living with style, confidence and the freedom to create your own life. It is a place to document and share my process, progress and the things that capture my attention along the way. I’m figuring it (life? success? what I want?) out as I share my wins, losses and daily struggles as a plus-size woman, online content creator and business owner. 

I’m glad you found your way here; welcome; I look forward to getting to know you.
