About Earl

I'm Earl Parsons, originally from Bakersfield. I currently live in Chico, where I am working on a bachelor's in journalism from Chico State. I used to be a reporter and editor for The Renegade Rip, BC's student newspaper.

I just really wanted somewhere to post my articles and get feedback from people about what they think. A lot of my future posts might not be Bakersfield news, but still check it out.
