A
note from FRESH YARN creator, editor and host, Hillary Carlip:
When
we launch FRESH DAILY, SHOUT-OUTS will be a section where
we will acknowledge and announce exciting things like so and
so got a book deal, a FRESH YARN contributor won some award,
whatev.
But today I want to take this opportunity to give a shout-out
to FRESH DAILY's Sr. Editor, Michelle Boyaner. She
has worked tirelessly on finding and compiling fresh material
to bring to you daily. It's a ton of work and we here at FRESH
YARN do it all for free simply because we love the art form
of the personal essay, and want to support the amazing writers
doing it (as well as the readers who love to read them!)
Besides
being a brilliant essay writer (check out two of her pieces
on FRESH YARN -- Oh
Mother, Where Art Thou?
and Lost and
Found), Michelle is also a talented screenwriter and award-winning
film maker (for more go to www.greeniefilms.com.)
I
know she's not gonna be pleased that I am going on and on
about her because she is an extremely humble person, but --
a) I couldn't do FRESH DAILY without her and, b) she has always
gone above and beyond to help out (she's done so much for
FRESH YARN, too), and c) she's the best kind of friend a girl
(or boy) could have. So therefore, she gets the very first
SHOUT-OUT! M to the B, thanks for EVERYTHING! XOX HC
I'd
also like to give a SHOUT-OUT to Kim Brittingham, another
extremely talented writer and FRESH
YARN contributor, who, despite us not even knowing each
other personally, one day offered to proof read all the pieces
going up on FRESH YARN. She has so kindly taken the time to
do so on each installment. She's got quite the eagle eye and
I so appreciate her help.
And
THANKS to all you FRESH YARN readers and fans. We look forward
to FRESH DAILY returning in the fall, and, in the meantime,
will continue bringing you new essays every three weeks with
FRESH YARN.
