Other Stuff

I was Writer/Producer for Zap2it.com, an entertainment news website under the umbrella of Tribune Media Services. I wrote about news in the TV industry, as well as show summaries and "Best Bets" which are featured on Yahoo. These are some links to what I wrote:

Recaps
As a lowly TV writer, one of my more painful tasks was watching and recapping episodes of reality programs "Big Brother 3" and "Survivor: Thailand." The only thing more embarassing than watching these programs is having to explain them in detail to the people who did NOT watch them.

Best Bets
These are the brief lists of program recommendations that I wrote each week. I got to be pretty sarcastic here, too, and since they are short, they are an easy read.

Bylines
These are news items that I wrote for Zap2it featuring my byline. Some of them were picked up on the Knight Ridder Tribune newswire, which supplies content to 400 newspapers nationwide.

I went on a set visit to the FOX action series main set, the Candy Store, filled with the world's finest cars, motorcycles and other technology.
