I totally forgot to tell you guys – i have added “columnist” to my resume!! I was asked a couple months ago to write a couple articles a month for the 2 biggest papers in Utah – the Salt Lake Tribune and the Deseret News. I was a little nervous at first because writing is def not my thing! I even asked “have you seen how i write and are you sure?!” But, they have awesome editors and fix all my typos, grammar mistakes and all that good stuff.
I have done 3 articles so far – they are published in the SPACES section of both papers every other Saturday. They will mostly be things that i have done on my blog already. So far i have done one on reviving a piece of trashed furniture, my plank wall and todays column is on framed builder mirrors. So if you are in Utah, check them out, but they will not be available online as of yet.
Anyways – its pretty exciting and it feels pretty awesome when i see my work in the paper – writing a newspaper article is the last thing i ever thought i would be doing!
Sausha! That is so awesome! way to go…I dont get the paper but now I will have my mom save that section for me :)
I know, i dont even read the paper! But i make sure and buy a copy every other saturday :)
I love it! I’ll have to go get the paper just so I can read your column! I am excited for you to have that opportunity! Proof that when you follow your passion and step out of your comfort zone opportunities come your way you’d never imagine. So proud!
that is so exciting! You are a rockstar!!
You’ve worked hard and now it’s being shared with an even broader audience. That is so cool — congrats!
