Forgot to mention- successful presentation!
Alluded to this in my book blog but I had my presentation on journalism history and the importance of local journalism at the end of August, and it went really, really well. Never had to do a presentation that long but I kept everyone's interest (that is saying something because the day was hot and humid, and there was no a/c). Nailed the time, too. I was about 50-60 minutes total *fistpump* There's tentative talk about me doing the presentation again, which I'd love :) Really happy about that!
