in the news: our journalist and writer friends

Facebook is great for a lot of things.  I love keeping up with friends from various parts of my life and what they are doing, personally and professionally.  Here are a few friends making headlines of their own.

Former college pal, dear friend and fellow Spoleto-junkie, Mark Canavera has written on LGBT rights on the African continent.  Check out his work on The Huffington Post!

Fellow PCV (Romania), Zack Baddorf recently reported about Peace Corps for NPR and Burundi for Voice of America.

Finally, Laura Scholz, a gal I met back in high school (SC Governor’s School for the Arts) and then got to know better in college, has a fantastic blog: The Weary Publicist. She tackles everything from work to love to fashion and food and everything in between with sweet Southern candor and refreshing authenticity.
