The inglorious refrain of the internet – “under construction.” It was plastered all over my Angelfire account back when I was much younger, back when it was the custom of the day to accompany it with all manner of flashing lights and chartreuse and other hard-to-spell colors. Here we are though in 2010, the colors of the internet have pleasantly been subdued, and suffice to say in the unlikely event that nothing follows this post by February, I’ve probably shuffled off this virtual coil (at least in any practical sense).
I’m starting this as a professional blog. My goals is to make this a nexus for my writing, photography, and video projects, some of which I do full time – as a web & marketing writer for Buena Vista University – and all of which I do on a freelance basis.
For some initial examples – three stories I wrote are currently highlighted on the BVU homepage:
Arctic Dogsled Expedition Leader Speaks on Campus
Students Make Paper Cranes for Hiroshima Peace Memorial
BVU Criminal Justice Program Partners with Innocence Project of Iowa
Arctic adventure! Oragami! World Peace! Cute puppies! Wrongful accusations! Justice at whatever the cost*! Higher education! It’s all above, folks, with more to come!
*for free!

Last night, when I was setting this up, I wondered if I should take the leap ($17 being < the cost of a movie date) to get my own domain name, as I see you did. Well. I'm glad to see you doing this now, and I'm hoping, with the charm of the new, that we'll both be more steadfast in our production. The Internet needs us.
