Simon suggested Dan Hon... More
And… we’re back By Nic Price on 5 March 2017 — 1 min read I’m going to start blogging again. There. I’ve said it. Out loud. On here. So it’s public, even if it’s not going viral.

Goodnig8t By Nic Price on 14 July 2005 — 1 min read Blogging is changing and challenging journalism. It changed and challenged mine even though I was doing the blogging.
