Blog: I wear different hats in order to survive

October 14, 2010 By Northwest Asian Weekly

These days, I wear a lot of hats, both figuratively and literally. That is reality for a little publisher.

My camera is more important than a cell phone. A cell phone can take pictures too, I agree. However, the photos are lousy.

Mainstream publishers rarely
write. But I do, and I blog, too. Not that I am a great blogger, but I don’t need to pay myself to blog. Most importantly, I can share with the community about the interesting people I meet and the fun places I visit.

So the last thing I expected was to get an award for blogging, which I did from the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association on Oct. 1.

My job is also to help fill the pages with stories and advertisements. Not that I am the best salesperson, but I have to haggle for my business, or else we won’t survive. ♦
