WAMK hits the big time..

I received an e-mail last week from the lovely and talented Katie Favazza, who is the Managing Editor for Townhall Magazine.  Every month, Townhall features a few bloggers in the magazine, allowing them to post short pieces on topical stuff.

Anyway, WAMK was selected to write a brief piece on the upcoming DNC hoopla here in Denver.  I submitted my article, and got good reviews from Katie and some of the folks at Townhall.  Let me tell you, I have a whole new respect for people that write for a living every day.

It's hard enough to come up with blog posts on a regular basis, but being given a topic and a deadline is tough.  That same article being in print, and not having hyperlinks inside the body of the writing is a challenge as well.

So well done, columnists.  I now understand why every now and then you write a "clunker", and have more respect for the great writers who never seem to but a bad one down on paper.

By the way, Townhallers, I'll be in DC in early August.  I'd love to come by for a tour of my new corner office and say "hi".

The post, again, was very well done.

We'd love to have you stop by in August. I'm actually going to Denver in August too, so email me and we can coordinate a time to show you the office and maybe grab lunch or a beer.

Sounds good. We can discuss my "per-word salary" at our meeting.

:)

Thanks again for the opportunity!

Be cafeful - rumor has it Katie has cooties.

Not to worry, Chris.

I was innoculated against "girl cooties" back in 2nd Grade.

Thanks for the heads up, however!

Congratulations, and well deserved.

Which issue?

Look for my debut in August!

I'd have congratulated you sooner, but I was looking for a snarky angle and couldn't find it. Congrats!

Piker:

Once you read the piece, I'm confident you'll find something to snark at!

Does this mean I have to subscribe to the magazine?

Maybe I will...sheesh, one more magazine that I don't have time to read.

Well, anyway, congrats.

Well deserved.

Paulie:

When I get my copy, I'll make sure to scan it, and post a link..

Thanks for the kind words!

Awesome! Looking forward to it!
