				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://wordbit.freehostia.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/exploring.jpg"><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; margin: 0px 25px 0px 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="185" alt="exploring" src="http://wordbit.freehostia.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/exploring_thumb.jpg" width="244" align="left" border="0"></a> It&#8217;s been about four months since my classmates and I graduated from the Print Futures Professional Writing Program. If you&#8217;re serious about your craft and are thinking of attending this two-year diploma program, I heartily encourage you to go for it. I love to write and I love getting paid to do it even more. But don&#8217;t kid yourself &#8211; writing well works up a mental sweat for every writer, whether oozing with talent or not. </p>
<p>I thought I&#8217;d acknowledge some of my graduated colleagues who have websites online. The reason most of the sites on the list below are not on my blogroll is because they&#8217;re static pages. In other words, they&#8217;re not regularly updated &#8211; which is a little unfortunate in my opinion because I love to read what people are up to in the minutiae of their lives and enjoy reading the blogs of people I know. I almost never check in with static pages. Facebook&#8217;s great, but is more like a sophisticated telegraphing machine than a home you can personalize and make your own. </p>
<p><span id="more-172"></span></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a Print Futures Grad and have a blog or regularly updated site that&#8217;s not on this list, please let me know&nbsp; &#8211; I&#8217;d love to add you.</p>
<p>In no particular order:</p>
<p>Josie Padro: <a href="http://theprobe.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">The Probe</a> is Josie&#8217;s blog.<br />Current position: Freelance writer (<em>alive</em>, Vancouverplus). </p>
<p>Shawn Klemmer: You can find Shawn at <a href="http://www.wildgrass.ca/" target="_blank">Wildgrass Communications</a>.<br />Current position: Public Relations Officer at the Xa:ytem Longhouse Interpretive Centre.</p>
<p>Pamela Findling: Pamela&#8217;s <a href="http://www.pamelafindling.com/" target="_blank">portfolio website</a>. <br />Current position: Communications Coordinator at Science World (Telus World of Science).</p>
<p>James Lee: James&#8217; <a href="http://www3.telus.net/jl/" target="_blank">portfolio website</a>.<br />Current position: Procedures Analyst at Central 1 Credit Union.</p>
<p>Laura Kelsey: personal <a href="http://www.laurakelsey.com/" target="_blank">portfolio website</a>.<br />Current position: Editor of 100 Mile House Free Press.</p>
<p>Nicole Skutelnik: personal <a href="http://www.nicoleskutelnik.com/" target="_blank">portfolio website</a>.&nbsp; <br />Current position: Novelist (children&#8217;s lit).</p>

<p>Kai Jansson: Personal <a href="http://www.kaijansson.com/" target="_blank">site and blog</a>.<br />Current position: Copy editor at Stockwatch.</p>
<p>These aren&#8217;t all the people I graduated with, but the others don&#8217;t have an online presence. Shockingly, there are people in this world who don&#8217;t spend all their time on the net!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
