The Long Farewell
—
In what is likely to be my last post at The Confabulum, I’d like to tell the story of how I came to Culture11, thank the people who helped make the project possible, and reflect on what comes next (for journalism — I’m not sure what comes next for me.) Strange as it may sound, ...
