I think this guy Kent had my job at Eugene Weekly before I did, and definitely before I was laid off last month. I look forward to writing/researching(?) books on Oregon's "fascinating" oral histories (fact or faux?) in the soon future. I think mine will be called "Places In Which To Lose Your Freaking Mind in a Soggy Timber Town, with Anecdotal Evidence." Look for it in your local Goodwill thrift stores in Fall 2011.

Mr. Chuck! Schiffer is "eagerly seeking authors to pen local ghost story books." They request that you "email your book idea to info@schifferbooks.com"

See? There's life after weeklies.
