Dr. G. and the Blast

“At first, nobody liked Ms. W.”

The hook of infamy! Written by me, in the student newspaper edited by me. It briefly stunned Ms. K., our (now former) adviser. It shocked and delighted my classmates. It’s making my principal supremely nervous.

Actually, I’m not sure which parts of our little student newspaper are making her nervous, but I’m sure most of it is. She sent us a memo, demanding prior review. She wants to know how we got the funds to print it. She corrected our spelling, incorrectly. She wants to meet with the entire newspaper staff.

I don’t think she realizes that she’s dealing with a blogger. Prior review: yeah, right. Funds: minimal expenses, paid out of pocket or supported by ads. Minor spelling issues: unimportant. Staff: anybody with something to say.

Oh, and she complimented the layout. Layout: completely obsessed over.

YAY! Nuts, huh? There are so many chances for people to perfect their writing and journalism skills before they reach high school.
