PeregrineFalcon 0 #2 September 6, 2008 Congratulations!! I still have a copy of my first sports story for the San Mateo Times. It's a great feeling. One thing though. Get used to some bad times too, like when some copy editor decides to hack your story and make it look NOTHING like what you intended it to look like. Still, congratulations. Go celebrate with a jump! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moodyskydiver 0 #13 September 7, 2008 QuoteWhat did you write (or did I miss something?) I wrote an article on the frivious spending of the local city council (especially after they voted themselves a raise) for the local county newspaper I work for now.Its really not that exciting an article thats why I was shocked that it got front page coverage.lol! Unfortunately they dont have the newest edition up on the webpage yet so no link to post.(its a new,very small newspaper still in its growing phases). "...just an earthbound misfit, I."
