The Huffington Post and other less exciting places to read my writing
Posted: March 4, 2012 Filed under: Journalism, North by Northwestern | Tags: computers, contraception, online dating Leave a comment »The Huffington Post reached out to NBN and asked to publish my piece on contraception as a start to a partnership with our site. You can see it here. When I wrote the piece a few weeks ago, I thought the news had already passed, and that I was late to the game. I almost didn’t write it at all, because I didn’t think it was timely anymore. While it’s great that a professional publication wants to publish something that I wrote, it’s sad that we still have to talk about this. It’s sad that since I wrote this, it’s become an even bigger issue. It’s a reminder that equal rights are not something that we can passively expect, but something we have to constantly demand.
In lighter news, the North by Northwestern magazine came out last week, and it’s beautiful. You can take a look at the PDF here. I only served as a writer this quarter, but the staff did a fantastic job. You can read about my computer struggles and my thoughts on the OkCupid profile-writing process, then read about the science of online dating.
