  2. I spent a couple months reporting on this case in the beginning of 2011. Apparently, many people in the media feel as I do that this one of those disturbingly complex cases that highlights major flaws in the justice system. I don’t have an opinion of whether these men are guilty or innocent, but I believe that sentiment is the result of a failure by both the defense, prosecution and judge. I am anxious for what the finished product of this documentary might look like.

    Look at the center of this image for 30sec, then watch Van Gogh’s *Starry Night* come to life

    Welp. I know how I’ll be entertaining everyone at work tomorrow and myself for the next 30 minutes.

    The good news, young writers, is that your life does not have to be extraordinarily interesting, because there are billions of people in the world who do have interesting lives, and you have the privilege of telling their stories. Even the most productive journalist could not write 1% of humanity’s freely available interesting stories in the course of an entire career. Your friends, and neighbors, and community members, and people across town, and across your country, and across the world far and wide are all brimming with stories to tell. Stories of love, and war, and crime, and peril, and redemption. The average inmate at your local jail probably has a far more interesting life story than Susan Shapiro or you or I do, no matter how many of our ex-boyfriends and girlfriends we call for comment. All of the compelling stories you could ever hope to be offered are already freely available. All you have to do is to look outside of yourself, and listen, and write them down.

  10. Solo Thanksgiving #3

    In the last three years, I’ve spent this holiday in a foreign country and two different states, no less than 800 miles from my home, where the people I love most eat and drink too much, laugh til it hurts to breathe, and scream their heads off when the Packers play.

    In other news, I’m driving home from work singing an a Capella version of “all by myself.” Wallow wallow wallow.
