About N.L.

I'm a journalist, blogger and videographer who writes several media blogs, including Paperback Writer and Nick 2.0. I just resigned as the managing editor for ABC23 in Bakersfield, though there's a good chance I may manage another media site... 

I'm a contributing writer for LA Times Best Selling Author Brad Listi's TheNervousBreakdown.com. My work has appeared on the homepage of CNN.com and other news sites all over America. You can purchase Lords: Part One, which describes the infamous Lords of Bakersfield. They still creep the city long after they and a 1977 Central California dust storm ravaged the area. I welcome humorous notes, weird stories of urban survival and news tips to my Myspace.

Reading your Post reminded me of the author: Paul Leppin. I just finished reading his book Severin's Journey Into The Dark. He was one of my Bohemian Grandmothers favorite writers from her era. I will be following your new story as you post it. You truly know how to command all 26 soldiers to your full creative advantage! Cheers to doing what comes naturally and contributes to your lifes happiness!

Nada mucho - other than working way too many hours a day, trying to move in 4 weeks, and leaving for England in 4.5 weeks!  Augh!  Now if I could just figure out how to fart money.  How about you my friend?
