Updating

Okay, the profile may take a little bit to get up, or I have to ask another blogger or something. Anyhow, seeing as I'm awake I might as well write some.

I think I'll try this website style of skipping lines between paragraphs rather than indenting, and I'll try my best to be grammatical. Ha. I love the occasional one-word non-sentence that I treat like a sentence. So I am a bit neurotic. That's the blogger in me.

Okay, I'll start talking a little about myself and the title of this blog.

Aside from what I've said about where I live, it's actually warmed up a bit in the Northeast, though we all had some sleet in Boston today. Compared to when it was 4 degrees a couple of weeks ago, 32 degrees seemed like a fine temperature to run outdoors in, so that's what I did. I first got seriously into running when I was 13 and, through different knee injuries, I've been at it or trying to get back to it since. It's one of my loves.

As should be quite obvious by now, I love journalism. But am I a good journalist? Well, I am working on it, and this program at Emerson has been very helpful to me in that regard. After all, we talk about blogs! I do like to write, and I have written for both print and radio. On Monday NPR ombudsman (works for station as a reactor to the public) Jeffrey Dvorkin is coming to Emerson, so I'm looking forward to hearing him speak.

I wrote mainly for the sports department college, at the University of Virginia. It was an awesome school, and an awesome paper, according to this reporter. Since college and lately I've gotten experience writing stories about business, education, local news, politics and human interest pieces. You can find a couple of my pieces at http://jsons.collegepublisher.com if you scroll down a bit, but I go by Jonathan Schwab in print.

I think I ought to rest some, but is it enough to give my word that I will update again soon? Anyone reading yet? Have a good one.
