John Guilfoil's Blog
Alas, the formal end has come for PRrag.com.
The blog hasn’t been active in over two years, but it is with a great deal of excitement that I announce the creation of John Guilfoil Public Relations LLC.
I’ll be blogging JGPR.net from time to time, so please check out the site!
I know I haven’t blogged in ages, but I wanted to take a second here to point to a story I wrote in today’s Globe.
The story of Dieuphete Celime, as heartbreaking as it is, is one of ultimate hope. As much as I love covering breaking news/spot news, and as good as I’ve become at running out and getting the quick story, I would write Dieuphete Celime stories every day. This story is not tragic but beautiful, and photographer Eric Jacobs did a fantastic job capturing the scene.
As I turn 28 today, it’s a great gift to be able to put a story like that in the newspaper.
It may not mean much to some, but the word “staff” is something young journalists seldom take for granted.
And after five years, I’m so utterly proud to say that I’m on the staff of The Boston Globe.
Today I began a night cops beat job here. I’ll be working three nights a week and will still be writing the business and fun tech stories, which prove to be a great contrast to the cops beat.
Happy 2010 to everyone. Next week I’ll be posting about some exciting news in my career.
In the mean time, read about Blast’s plans for world domination.
