blog benefits

Let us take a pause from my PORTRAIT story.

It is monday again. I sit in my journalism class again. The Bubble Yum Imac sits temptingly in front of me.

I can type. It is amazing how very little effort this class is taking. Most of the time I forget that I am in school.

It’s pretty great. A class that requires very little attention.

I now have a reason to be glad I’m taking the class, though. I have gotten a gig!
I met a woman on craig’s list who is starting a community paper. And she looks at my writing from my blog

YES, THIS VERY SAME BLOG

and agreed to let me be a writer. For free.

We are both getting something out of this.

I did my first interview on Saturday. Stay tuned for the article. I’ll post it here after I have completed it.
