I continue to spread the locations where my stories end up.
Now I can truly write on my resume that I have been published in The Times Argus in Vermont and the Worcester Telegram in Mass.
Both picked up a story I wrote on some of America’s offbeat museums, which you can read throug those links, or you can go here to see some pretty pretty pictures that go with them.
Afterthought:
Adding more papers that picked up the story. The Rutland Hearld in VT and Arizona Central.
I’ve written about the Hip Hop Subway Series before. Here it is in video.
It’s been a long day.
At Columbia we had a big lecture with some great speakers including Jimmy Wales — founder of Wikipedia. Recently I’ve had a chance to go to Google’s NY office and talk with the CEO of Digg — but this surpasses both by far.
I got to talk with him for a few moments one on one about NewAssignment.Net. He was not only familiar with it — but had encouraging words.
Related: A great video where Jay Rosen explains the project that I’m working on (mom, dad, this will help explain why it has finally paid off that I’m a geek).
About a year ago I mentioned a future story I wanted to write.
It was on National Novel Writing Month — or NanoWriMo for short. In November thousands of people all across the world give novel writing a shot — by furiously typing 75,000 words (175 pages) in 30 days.
I can’t believe I’ve had this blog for over a year.
I also can’t believe that I actually remembered to write this story one year later.
I had fun working on this story. When I was reporting on it (back in early October) I planned on taking part. Alas, I have a new job which has forced me to push aside my novel writing aspirations for another November.
The story, written for school, is syndicated to over 400 papers across the US and Canada. I don’t know who else has picked it up, but I see the Roanoke Times picked it up and ran it last week. If you see the story run anywhere else — let me know. (Update: Also published in Arizona Central.
(the story can be found on the link, or after the break)
