John McIntyre, the assistant managing editor for the copy desk at The Baltimore Sun, and writes You Don't Say, gave everyone the heads-up for a new blog called Words to the Wise, which is written by Kathy Schneck of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel here in Milwaukee.

It's nice to have people close to home. I feel a little isolated at times way out here in the Midwest, even though we're so close to Chicago. There aren't all that many fiction editors or agents in the Milwaukee area, and it'll be nice to read some thoughts from someone like Kathy, who works for a newspaper like The Journal.

I shall eagerly revisit and comment on it. Though I will say that there seems to be a lot of Journal-reader-based commenting going on, so I suppose that means I shall have to work more diligently on pouring over the paper every morning before work.
