Here are links to my writing from the Revelstoke Review and elsewhere. I spent eight years at the newspaper and was involved with roughly 400 papers in that time (I did get vacations), so there was a lot to choose from. I also included a few sponsored articles to demonstrate that I can do PR. I’ve put an asterisk next my favourites.
