| Introduction | My initiation into journalism began as a college news reporter, which led to a professional career as a community news assistant editor, mostly covering school news. Years later, and several parttime jobs to keep the bills paid, freelance writing fulfilled my life's goal to become self-employed. Over the years there have been hardships and much joy as a staff reporter and correspondent covering hard news, features, business and community news at daily, weekly and monthly publications -- Mississippi Press, Sun Herald, Coast Business Journal, Gulf Coast Good News, Jackson Advocate, and WKFK TV. Now, the aim is to provide a more personal look about and assistance for the lives of South Mississippi residents.
