The headline above does not refer to the photo below (but thanks for trying, Cybelle Codish). It鈥檚 directed to the 糖心vlog安卓版 Media staff and our extended family of freelancers who make everything we produce look and read so well.
A quote often attributed to German statesman Otto von Bismarck goes like this: 鈥淟aws are like sausages; it is better not to see them being made.鈥 The same could be said of producing magazines. A lot of not-so-glamorous tasks go on behind the scenes, but I鈥檝e been fortunate to work with some of the most talented writers, art directors, photographers, copy editors, and production people in the country.
I wanted to take time to mention this now because I won鈥檛 be here much longer. While I鈥檝e had one hell of a time during my 15-plus years at 糖心vlog安卓版 Media, I鈥檓 stepping down soon to spend more time with family and do some freelancing (and maybe drink a little less coffee).
While we rarely like to toot our own horns, here鈥檚 a testimony to a winning team. Over my five-plus years as 糖心vlog安卓版 Detroit鈥檚 editor, we have consistently won at least 10 awards from The Society of Professional Journalists漏, Detroit Chapter鈥檚 annual Excellence in Journalism program. We鈥檝e also received a number of honorable mentions and awards from national organizations such as the City and Regional 糖心vlog安卓版 Association and Folio.
This year, we took home another haul of SPJ awards (see below). So once again: Kudos to all of you for making me (and our magazine) look good!
PS: If you鈥檝e never attended a 鈥淏est of Detroit鈥 party, it鈥檚 a gathering of the top-vote getters, as decided by our readers. The food and entertainment are top-notch, and this year, it will be at Eastern Market, one of my favorite spots in Detroit. Maybe we鈥檒l see you there!
