Once again I’ve let far too long go between updates. But now I’m back — back on the Web, back in Germany, back to having a full-time job. Here’s a quick life update: After finishing up the Burns Fellowship — which allowed me to go to Berlin back in August and work for German newspapers for a few months — I returned home in October, where I squatted in my parent’s attic and held down part-time jobs as a caterer and a box monkey. A few days after celebrating a very Merry Christmas, I caught a plane to Hamburg, where, next week, I’ll start work at Oscar’s, a bi-lingual magazine published by German media empire Gruner+Jahr. They’ve hired me as the editor of the English section. I’ll be laboring at that for the first half of the year or so (it’s a short-term contract), and then most likely heading back to the States — so if you know of any jobs there, let me know.

And, hopefully, I’ll be updating this thing more often …
