To be clear: it's the New England Newspaper and Press Association . They hold an annual convention in Boston - hardly the biggest I've ever been to, but fun and sufficient nonetheless. We met people from across New England, and mostly hung out among ourselves. I came home with pens and pads and free stuff (love swag!) and got to take Lisa with me.
*Incidentally, I had no illusion about winning any awards. Plus, I'm not big on them. Would I like to win one? Sure. Does it make my career? Nah. Besides all of that, I have a few awards in my possession that mean the world to me. And I have people who love me?
But there's more. I wasn't a good reporter at the Wilton Bulletin delta airline reservation , and I suppose hearing others say that saddens me. I think my writing was, generally, fine, and I could put together delta airline reservation a pretty good feature story.

Now, they've been nominated, which is to say that they're in the top 99% of their category. But I wanted them to get the effing recognition that they deserve.
I greatly enjoyed meeting the people, led by Tom Shattuck, from Boston Herald Radio . I certainly don't consider delta airline reservation them to be competition, and I like seeing radio thrive.

I was reminded, again, why Boston is such a great city. Great food (North 26 aside, where $60 gets you a breakfast that was indescribably frustrating), great people, great atmosphere, great old ballpark (team aside). The shopping is great, and so on.
It wasn't a weekend without stress. It wasn't perfect, and I can't tell you that there weren't a few moments where my head was lit up like the Citgo sign. But I was with great friends and colleagues. Overall, take the negatives out and it was something I look forward to again.
