I just returned from a meeting with the editor and art director of Campus Connections, the student newspaper for the Community College of Denver. I went to suggest changes for the astrology column that I write. All of my suggestions were accepted.
I guess market research and reader feedback counts for something.
But I am not sure if I am comfortable with the effect on my ego.
One of the changes I wanted was to get rid of the introduction; basically I discovered that no one is actually reading it. Also I want a column this year that is closer to what I would get paid to write elsewhere. And the editor wants to get rid of it too...because he thinks that I am actually a better writer than that based on the work I did in a history class that he was also attending (he wants some serious political and historical articles from me).
Gee, I can feel my ego grow as I type. Run away! Run away!

Congratulations. I hope you don't have to go to the doctors with a severe case of bloaty-head!
Good Luck
