I've decided to post my "winning" article from the 2007 Writer's Digest
annual competition here, since I really don't have anywhere to submit it. It placed 7th in the article category. It's called
"A Visit With the Green Fairy" and it's about absinthe. I had wanted to submit it to Imbibe magazine, but shortly
after I'd won, they ran a piece on absinthe. I thought about Tin House, too, but they ran a piece on absinthe that they included
in their anthology. That always seems to be the way for me. Anyway, hope you like it.
Below are links to some of my online articles. (Some of them--Provence, Tangula and G&L Travel--don't
have my bylines, but they are definitely mine.)
