You're not going to change anyone's mind. Especially online.

Online reaction is very different than real-world reaction.

I'm good at marketing myself through the columns. But compared to other people I know, as far as networking and pushing yourself out there, I'm not very good at that.

What I wound up doing, which I think is really journalistically dubious, is changing the order of some of the things I did, so that the things I ended up struggling with the most wind up being two-thirds of the way in.

I can't imagine what someone would write that would infuriate me. Maybe if my loved one had died of some disease and someone was insensitive, that would piss me off.

I'm not that clued into what people are that touchy about and how many of them there are and how niche these niches are.

I want to be heavily tied to a city that I write for every week, that knows my stuff and I can interact with.
