  1. I noticed that you often don’t post any follow up to your articles especially on the day of. That’s unfortunate because I don’t have a scanner and I’m not really sure where to find additional information and I’ve noticed this is pretty common

I like to think of myself as a reporter for the Average Joe. Journalism has become a craft defined largely by city dwellers on America's coasts. It’s time to take it back. I have been an Emerald Triangle resident since 2006 and this is year ten in Mendocino County. Please, email me at matthewplafever@gmail.com if you know a story that needs to be told.
