Wanna hear a secret?

Every day I ask myself if I’m doing the right thing.

Starting a company — a news company — at age 23 was a risk. Every day I wonder if it’s going to pay off.

Beyond that, there’s the Boston Globe. People tell me all the time that I need to be at a different newspaper right now if I want to come back one day.

I still disagree.

But I still gaze at JournalismJobs.com every few days wondering. Maybe Ft. Wayne? Maybe Miami? Maybe York, Pennsylvania?

Nah. Boston.

Gotta run. I have stories to edit for Blast.

    We’re all in this together… and yeah- sometimes I totally fetishize the grocery checker…. how glorious to just stand and *meep*, *meep*, *meep*….. But then- people like us, we like hard. We are the movers and the shakers, and man I love the look on someone’s face after shakin’ things up. ;) C

Got something to say?
