Cat's Article/Press Release Clips (2008)
A quick tiptoe through the tulips. A dance with the daffodils. Or maybe it's just daffy all round. Here are some highlights from Cat's freelance forays in local and regional newspapers.
Cat is the media release writer for her regional Arts Council; several media releases are included as well.
(Never mind the "buy online" thing. Just click below to go to the blog where the clips are hosted.)

Homeschooling Today (copy editor) (2008)
Cat is a copy editor for Homeschooling Today magazine, including line editing, proofreading and substantive editing. It's a great team to work with and a solid homeschooling resource. The best part is getting to pre-read the articles.

Rivers Banner (2004)
Cat freelances in the odd genre of gardening humour for the local paper, "Rivers Banner." Look for her there, but don't be disappointed if her byline doesn't show up--sometimes it's hidden behind the "media release" mask on behalf of local non-profits.

The Authors With Cool Hats Convention
