What per-i-o-di-cals do you read?

Years of blogging have made me forget how nice it is to see your work published somewhere other than your own blog.

But whom should I write for? The most well-known media are a bit out of reach for a heretofore unknown writer, so I’m on the lookout for magazines and sites that might be more open to that. Not counting HuffPo.

Motivations:

  • Having an editor improves quality (theoretically anyway)
  • Being in a more professional venue motivates one put more energy and care into a piece
  • Reaching a wider audience, being part of a larger conversation

Jumps & swings

So I’ve been planning to migrate blogs for months now, and though this one is still under construction, I’m going to open it up anyway. During this time my only writing venues have been LiveJournal and Facebook, and I can only post about dating and inane topics for so long without craving something a bit more serious.

In the near future, I hope to be posting thoughts here about: politics, psychology, gender, design, food, fashion, post-religious spirituality, music, etc….

Oh, and commentary on How to be Bacon
