So I got interviewed by a local newspaper about being a minimalist and dealing with the Xmas season.
If they decide to actually run a story on minimalism I am sure they will make me look like a total weirdo. haha

That's pretty cool.
What was that experience like?
Send us a clipping please. I'm studying Journalism in school and wonder how the reporter found you and yes, what was the experience like?
Are there still clippings?Quote:

And the students will go, "Wow, really?? (Pause) Professor, what's a 'newspaper'?"Quote:

The journalist is apparently a sardonic columnist. haha
He also interviewed a friend of mine who started the minimalist group here. She said the interview with the journalist went well, though they both shared a well-meaning laugh about how minimalist I am apparently. !thumbsup!
The piece should appear next Tuesday. So we'll see how it turns out. haha
