New clip: WHY Magazine

With everything that happened last weekend, I completely forgot to let everyone know that I have an essay in the new issue of WHY Magazine. The essay is "Stable Condition," and it's about how having a horse has helped me become a better writer and work-at-homer.

New magazine article

I recently started writing for METROMODE, a Denver gay and lesbian magazine. Although I'm straight and happily married, I have been writing for gay and lesbian publications for a couple of years now, starting with The Rainbow Babies during the summer of 2006.

Anyway, the April/May edition of METROMODE recently came out, and inside its pages is my first article for the magazine: a profile of Senator Jennifer Veiga, the Colorado legislature's first openly gay politician.

My name was even listed in the masthead under "Contributing Writers." I'm so proud!

New article: Scandals in publishing and what it means for us

I have a new article up on CollegeCandy.com. Because it's about the scandals in the publishing industry the last few years, I thought my fellow freelancers might be interested.

Selling Your Soul for a Good Story

Good advice for writers

This was originally a follow-up post to my article "How Society Supports Low-Paying Writing Jobs," which ran in WritersWeekly.com in December of 2006. In the original post I plugged a consulting service for writers. After I found out in 2007 that the consultant was spamming other writers, I decided to retract my referral.

Sorry if this decision affects you, but honestly I think everyone is better off this way!
