Just South of the Mason/Dixon Line

"Words - so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them."

~Nathaniel Hawthorne

a job where I could do something I'm passionate about wouldn't be work.

As it is my senior year--I'm constantly caught up in the ever-present fear of what my life will be like after graduation (aka where my current life plan trails off). Ergo, I've focused my mind long enough to compile a few of my magazine addictions/loves that I'd love to parlay into a career of sorts. And, not surprisingly, they are all located in the South and deal with some of my favorite things: lifestyle, food, and beauty products all with a little southern twang.

Here they are ladies and gents--in no particular order:

"The artist doesn't have time to listen to the critics. The ones who want to be writers read the reviews, the ones who want to write don't have the time to read reviews." ~ William Faulkner

If anyone has any suggestions as to how to make my dreams a reality/career feel beyond free to help a sista' out. 'Til then--I'll be dreamin'.
