The Forward Path - 7 December 2011

I’ve fallen behind a little bit when it comes to reporting what’s going on with the professional side of this crazy little adventure, so let me bring you up to date.

On Friday, November 25^th (Black Friday – coincidentally, I hope), my third guest column ran in the West Valley sections of the Arizona Republic.  It was a highly truncated version of the “Veteran’s Day 2011” essay that I posted to the blog on Nov. 18^th.  If you want to see just how truncated it was, here’s the link to the column as it appeared in the paper.  That, plus the 9/11 reflections editorial means that I’ve had a piece published in the paper in four consecutive months.   I guess I’ve got a streak on my hands, right? 

A nice surprise this time came on Saturday, Nov. 26^th, when we discovered that the column also ran in the Phoenix editions of the Republic (which makes sense, because the Veteran’s Day parade I wrote about occurred in central Phoenix).  That’s also a first. 

It’s an exciting time, but also one in which I’m trying really hard not to be impatient. 

Baby steps, Kev…baby steps.
