4. I love your blog http://propermanner.blogspot.com/ and your consistency! can you quickly delve into what motivates you to consistently blog everyday?

My blog is my outlet also my bestfriend. Sometimes I forget I have readers, followers or what have you. It is my journal. A few years from now I can go back to read or skim through each post to see how how I was feeling at a certain point in time or what exactly what I was involved whether it is music, photography, poetry, fashion, art, travel and whatever else may come in my life's journey. It still amazes when people tell me my blog is inspiring or that they even stopped by to check it out and they liked it. What amazes me more is when people tell me that they bookmark Mattoo's Place! Always blown because to me, I'm just doing me, but now that I look at it, I am doing more than that. I am a resourceful brother with a strong following of believers and the way I present things is captivating which makes it more a talent. It's also consistent as it is because I recognize people read it as often as I do and I don't want to keep anyone hanging.

5. I've always exchanged ideas with you and am always excited to hear about your future endeavors, without giving away any trade secrets can you give us a quick peek into your future endeavors?
Future endeavors are limitless and everyday I'm excited to know that my best has yet to come. Right now I'm working on a clothing line/ lifestyle brand called Stamp of Camaraderie: Trust Amongst Royalty. More than a brand it is a way of life. It is the code of my everyday dealings where every smile and handshake is sincere. A brand that will bring people together. Look out for the S.O.C. movement. The line will consist of t-shirts, hats, tote bags, sweaters, etc. It's a small endeavor that is big to me and those around me. I've always been a social butterfly who's into fashion so this brand will embody it all. Trust amongst royalty, honor amongst crooks, loyalty amongst friends, it's almost a secret society that I want everyone to be a part of. Look out for the Stampregime. The next few months will be special for all my followers!
