If you’re an editor looking for my recent work, or if you’re a fan *cough* family member keeping track of everything I write, this is where you’ll find links to all my publications in the past month. It’s also where I report on blog performance and oddities. In October, I helped a local nonprofit with some grant work and had eleven articles published between Earth911.com and ParentMap. The grant applications are not for public consumption, but links to the articles are hot off the press (or hot out of the dryer) below.

Crooked Road

I published 14 posts on the blog in October. That’s four more than I published in September, and quite a bit more than I was pushing out in the summertime. Just when I was starting to get the hang of Google Analytics, they updated the site and I don’t think it would be any more confusing if it was all in Tagalog. So for now, I have no idea how many people are visiting the blog or what they’re doing there.
