A victim of the âElon Musk playbook.â (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For me, and for most of my fellow millennials in the journalism industry, the idea of spending more than two decades in the same job seems unfathomable. Itâs not that I wouldnât like to, but Iâve never made it more than four years without being laid off or experiencing circumstances so unbearable that I have no choice but to quit. Alison Gerber arrived at the Chattanooga Times Free Press in 2003 as an assistant metro editor. (I first met her the following year, when I landed in Chattanooga
The Kicker: Journalism philanthropy, but make it fun. (opens the original)
Read excerpt

(Interestingly, no one has ever told me they would go into PR, which
Twenty years of food blogs. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A friend recently posted a photo on Instagram of a giant zucchini harvested from her backyard in Chicago, with a caption that she needed recipes that use a ton of zucchini. I knew exactly where to send her. The best food blog on the internet, Smitten Kitchen, has thirty-seven zucchini recipes in its archives, ranging from quesadillas to latkes to chocolate bread.
