A Good Newsy Start to the New Year

Picking up the late edition of The New York Times on the first Sunday of the year and finding that the Times ran your fire picture four columns certainly makes you feel good about a fresh start with the new year. Some spot news freelance is a fine way to kick things off.

There is no link to the stand-alone photo but here is the picture that made page 24 today. A tanker truck carrying gas crashed and burned just next to the Meadowlands Sports Complex. There was little left of the truck and the driver was missing.

And old pal Mike Markowitz, a fine freelance writer, hit the business pages of Newsday today with a piece about gay rights in the work place.

Looks like 2004 could be a good year for freelance journalism.
