Congrats to a dear and creative friend!

Congratulations to dear old pal Laurie Hertzel, who was nominated for a Minnesota Book Award today for "News to Me: Adventures of an Accidental Journalist." Had your scrapblog editor, who plays a tiny role in the book, known back then that Laurie would write a memoir someday, she would have done more zany, madcap things!
Laurie and Pam in Duluth, Minn., back in the day (the 1980s, that is -- the Duluth News Tribune heyday era of Laurie's book "News to Me: Adventures of an Accidental Journalist"). Laurie is now books editor at the Minneapolis Star Tribune. She and her husband, Doug Iverson, business editor of the St. Paul Pioneer Press, live near Como Park in St. Paul with their beloved dogs, Boscoe and Riley. Laurie also writes a wonderful blog.
