You are right I have dropped the ball on my end. Not without cause though. In 1992 I tried to get my paper to let me cover the 'Triple Crown Million Dollar Challenge" I was going to all of them anyway..besides ,I told one of the sports editors, there's this kid Lance Armstrong who is really something. Of course I was told no, bicycling is no big deal. ( I wrote a free-lance piece that ran in a local sports periodical). This summer that same editor assigned another writer to go to the TdF to cover LA...I'm not in Sports but in Metro and that was reason given me. Anyway... this getting to be inside baseball but you get the drift.
Now that it is brought up I think a free-lance piece for another mag would be a good idea...
thanks
