A short piece published under my old pen name, E.T. Robbins, in Writer’s Digest.

Some of my favorite pieces from The MetroWest Daily News, my hometown newspaper, where I worked as a stringer for a short time under my old pen name, E.T. Robbins (it’s a long story).

• Interview with Paula Poundstone
• A Secret Garden
• A Growing Friendship
• What’s Up at the Winery
• Little Ms. Fix-It
• Off the Cuff with ‘On the Hook’

I even did some film reviews for a site called Film Monthly (also under E.T. Robbins):

• Pearl Harbor — May 2001
• Moulin Rouge — June 2001
• Legally Blonde — July 2001
