A Quick Update...

Hey.

How are you? How was your month of August? Do anything exciting? That's great.

As evidenced by my lack of updates I have been M.I.A. for a while. However, I've decided to fill you in on the happenings in my life and maybe clear a few things up along the way. At one time, (specifically last February through May) I wrote for the University of Delaware's music publication entitled aUDio Magazine. The magazine was run entirely by students and was...a relaxed environment to say the least. Over the summer aUDio's website crashed. I emailed my editor and inquired about the reason behind this, and more importantly why it had not been fixed, but eventually I resolved to accept the demise of the publication and move on. So. That brings me to today. I am now on staff writing for The Coast Report. It's based in Costa Mesa, California, and is the student paper for Orange Coast College (home to 25,000 students, crazy right?!). It's much more organized than the University of Delaware's music magazine, perhaps because it is backed by college faculty. I'm excited to start writing regularly again. I'm also excited to get some of my unpublished work that I had originally done for Delaware out there (you know, where people might actually see it). I'll continue posting my work on this blog as well so check back in once in a while!

Here's the website for The Coast Report:

Our first printed issue comes out September 9th and the website is always being updated.

OCC also has a music blog that I will be contributing to throughout the year. Check it out here:

Thanks for all your continued support!
