It's been busy here at Seven Days these last couple weeks, hence the dearth of posts. I'm transitioning to this new online editor job, and working on NOW, our email newsletter. Also trying to tinker with Seven Nights, our online restaurant guide. Plus, we launched a video blog, Eva Sollberger's fantastic Stuck in Vermont. And last week, a bunch of us went to a Newspaper Next workshop in Boston.
To top it all off, I'm working in the midst of a construction zone.
The 7D office is expanding, which is great, but we can't shut down for a week while it happens, so there's all this noise. Here's a shot of one of our contractors putting in a new door to the room where the editors sit, what we call "the red room," because it's red. This is happening right in front of my desk today. The next shot shows our new office space, where the writers will sit.
I won't be joining them — I'm headed to this underutilized corner of the red room.
Don't worry, I haven't abandoned my blog. I actually have some changes planned that I'm hoping will happen shortly after I move into my new space. But it's too soon to share more.

Since 2014, Seven Days has allowed readers to comment on all stories posted on our website. While we’ve appreciated the suggestions and insights, the time has come to shut them down — at least temporarily.
While we champion free speech, facts are a matter of life and death during the coronavirus pandemic, and right now Seven Days is prioritizing the production of responsible journalism over moderating online debates between readers.
To criticize, correct or praise our reporting, please send us a letter to the editor. Or send us a tip. We’ll check it out and report the results.
Online comments may return when we have better tech tools for managing them. Thanks for reading.
