How pathetic is that?

I know a lot of you can't stand me, but if there's anyone who liked my writing in the News-Record, please contact me with any job leads you might have. Any kind of editorial project (researching, writing, copyediting, proofreading, layout, etc.) would be welcomed with open arms.

My resume and clips are online at http://www.mediabistro.com/shaunmccormack

Cheers,
Shaun

I am sorry to hear that Shaun. I thought you did the best you could and were stretched quite thin. What happened?

Thanks singlemalt.

The newspaper is "moving in a new direction" is the explanation they gave me.

Shaun:

Just receive my copy of the News-Wrecked and all 5 front page articles were written by you. And, at quick glance, two more articles on page 3. It's a wonder they didn't call it "Shaun McCormack's Paper."

Wondering who's going to write the entire paper now that you're gone! You must have been one busy guy.

I couldn't find any bylines other than Shaun's except in the Sports section.
