Help Wanted

August 20, 2009 in Uncategorized by dhartman | 7 comments

Dear Friends of Dinewithdanielle.com,

I need your help!  In the next day or so, I’m planning to send a few samples of my writing to local publications.  Hopefully, they’ll like what they see and will send an assignment my way.  If you’ve been following the blog, could you comment on this post – or on the Facebook page – and name one or two of your favorite posts?  Which have you found the most interesting?  The most well-written?  Strongest overall? Which sounds most like it could be in a magazine or newspaper? I’d love to hear your picks before I decide what to send around.

If you comment here, only I will see your email address.  And here’s a secret about that: you can put whatever you want in that box, real address or fake. No one will be the wiser, either way.  If you’re so inclined, you can even use a fake name!

Thanks for your opinions and your help.

    I love them all!

    I really do, but my absolute favorites are the restaurant reviews! SNOB is my favorite!

    I also really love the entire “Charleston Food” category!

    I, too, have loved all your posts, but my personal favorite was “A Tale of Two Beaches” because I really got a sense of Charleston as a place as well as the food. I also think your post on Lychee ice cream was wonder of brevity without sacrificing detail and humor. Can’t wait to see your by-line in print! :)

    I agree with Ashley–they’re all so wonderful but the restaurant reviews are la crème de la crème! (Trying to use a French/foodie turn of phrase, lol!)

    My favorite one is actually the Coast review. I think you did an outstanding job of stating your points clearly but your criticism delicately. It was masterful! :)

    Thanks so much for your kind feedback, ladies – you’ll be the first to know when/if something comes of my submissions! :)
