How is social media changing news?

Social media has made all deadlines the same: Now.

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

Psmith, who in fairness wasn't really a journalist, but pretended to be one for the length of one PG Wodehouse novel.

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

Probably my story for Waypoint, on how veterans and servicemembers have different relationships with games than most might assume.
