Writer, editor, pajama model

Zach Everson — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:58:44 +0000

Today BlackBook featured my article on my recent press trip to Guangzhou and Shenzhen: The Proud Junketeer: From Jamaica to China and Back Even better–for me, if not BlackBook’s readers–is getting to be its website’s lead model.

On Air Canada, I’m your in-flight entertainment

Zach Everson — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 16:54:27 +0000

My article on hotels where the art is given the gallery treatment, complete with booklets, podcasts, or even an in-house art historian, leads off the October 2009 issue of enRoute, Air Canada’s in-flight magazine. Download a .pdf of my article here. I was excited to include a hotel in my current hometown (Louisville’s 21C Museum Hotel) as [...]

Much as P. Diddy dropped the “P.” because he felt it was coming between him and his fans, Examiner dropped the “budget” in my title. I’m now the Louisville Travel Examiner. Rejoice.

Recently I overhauled the Kentucky Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty’s (KCADP) online presence. This describes our approach and how I can help you or your organization make better use of the Internet. Early on, KCADP’s staff and I determined that there were three objectives for its online presence (all of which should apply to similar [...]

Former editor at Gridskipper, Hunter Walker, goes legit, but not

Zach Everson — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 13:55:25 +0000

In 2007-2008, Hunter Walker was an assistant editor at Gridskipper. In that capacity, he was possibly the sole editor I’ve written for who sexed up my work rather than made a few strategic deletions (I had no objections). So what did the future hold for such a depraved blogger? He’s now enrolled in Columbia University’s Graduate School [...]

Does a chopsticks manufacturer need an editor or did I learn a new English word?

Zach Everson — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 17:44:37 +0000

The chopsticks wrapper at Louisville’s La Que, where I ate more pho in one sitting Sunday night than any man ever should: (Is a grouping of letters a word if it appears in the Urban Dictionary?)
