So after a paltry 10 weeks or so writing this blog with my friend and co-worker Melissa Ruggieri ... I’m outta here. I enjoyed it while it lasted!

It’s my last day at the Richmond Times-Dispatch; on June 30, I report to Virginia Commonwealth University as director of public relations and communications for the School of Pharmacy. It’s a brand new job and a great opportunity. And no, it doesn’t involve free drugs. (Yeah, people keep asking.)

Luckily for everyone, Melissa will still be around to keep the Pop! Culture blog up and running. I look forward to reading it from “the outside.“ Keep those cards and comments comin’! And tell all your friends ...
