Please email me if you see a piece you want to run. I'm flexible. I was the editor of a grassroots paper in Virginia, so I know all too well the sound of nickels rubbing together. Please contact me and we'll work something out. If you can afford to pay, please be honest about that. It's not just for my sake, kids. Think about your own karma.
I am anal-retentive about tracking published pieces. Please be a sport and send me a copy once it runs, so I don't have to stalk you and leave lipstick scrawled mash notes at your home. So much information is available online these days...
Cheers!
Kirk Read
