Hi Mark,

I’m writing a story for my feature writing class on how different medias have analyzed the political conventions.

Thanks for your time.

So, I came to check out your page after you commented on my blog here, and I realized I’m a fan of your blog 10000words.
I found it about two months ago, and I enjoy the posts. I even try to push it to other journalism students at my school.
Keep up the awesome work, and congrats on making the front page of Digg.
