My letters regularly appear or are quoted in the media. Go figure! Your community and/or church and/or whatever could probably use your skills. |

Maybe I'm just cynical--no industry that I was in that flopped every got any government funding. We had to suck it up and move on to something that paid. Paying $36 USD to someone to bolt on a wheel is OBSCENE and that's not including benefits..just BASE salary. |

All newspapers, magazines, and radio and television stations have telephone numbers listed in the phone book. They usually even have a bricks-and- mortar building whose physical address is also listed in the phone book. It should be fairly easy to locate some media outlet relatively local to you and talk to somebody there. I look forward to reading about you in my local paper after the syndicates pick up the story of what is surely a new and exciting paradigm. -- Tegger |
