“Longing and Shorting” in The Globe and Mail

My Longing and Shorting post from December was adapted for the Saturday edition of The Globe and Mail.

It’s the first time that anything I’ve written has been published in a “real” newspaper (that is, a paper that isn’t a student publication).

I’d like to thank Carol Toller, editor of the Our Town section, for making it possible.

  • Dude, you almost caused me to spew tea over my keyboard, reading the Longing and Shorting story again. And then I'd be quite unhappy, given that they don't make the Origional MS Natural Keyboards anymore.
