Inaugural post

Hello. My name is Mark, and I'm a reporting intern at The Skagway News. I live in a room slightly larger than a Twister mat. My daily commute to work is short, as I live in the newsroom. My newspaper serves a town that 113 years ago was filled with saloons and brothels and was patrolled by an outlaw named Soapy Smith. One of my main sources is named Buckwheat. It is 10:19 p.m. and still light outside. I am surrounded by mountains, water and smiling faces. Deadline is every two weeks. I am at peace with my life. I'm in Alaska, trick.
