Pre-Holiday Update

This week we were wrapping up the issue for December, so I edited a ton of proofs - including my DSL article! Unfortunately, it was largely edited to make it shorter. A lot of description was taken out - which I had thoroughly enjoyed writing - but I suppose that's the breaks. I still got to edit it - aha! Maybe some of my edits will stick. Regardless, it was really great to get to cover an actual event and write about it with humor and flair. I love finding the interesting angles of a story. Essentially, I get to take the best parts of a picture and do my best to recreate it. I don't know a lot of jobs who allow you that sort of creativity, but I know that that's why I love writing, whether it's for a magazine, newspaper, or anything else. As for this coming week, I'm not sure what I'm doing yet, but I am looking forward to seeing the December issue.
