Writing
Writing is something I tried much later in my career and out of necessity. It started at St. Vincent de Paul. Part of my job was to produce a monthly newsletter. Sometimes I could get content from other staff members but they have their own jobs to do too.
My favorite articles to write were the interviews with the clients. Hearing their stories really puts things in perspective. I hope I always portrayed them honestly and without judgment. I always lived in fear of coming across as exploitive.
I’ve included a few writing samples below and the full archive is available here. I’ve also broken the items up into specific categories like Fundraising, Press Releases, and Content.
