Thank you for visiting my Web site.
Myself, Matt Nelson
A coworker at a daily paper I used to work at once told me, "We wear many hats around here."
Her comment perfectly describes the life of a journalist in these changing times. A journalist at any given moment is a reporter, a blogger, a proofreader or an online techie.
During my career, I've had dozens of stories published in various sources, both fiction and non-fiction, been honored as the recipient of several writing awards and worked in nearly every aspect of the newsroom. In addition to writing extensively, I have sold ad space, designed page layouts, honed my interviewing skills as well as my photographic abilities. I maintain a blog as a student correspondent for Mother Nature Network, and have written for magazines and newspapers.
This site contains several copies of articles from my various publications, including the Hibbing Daily Tribune, the Times-Delphic, Drake Magazine and my blog on Mother Nature Network. As it is still under construction, it may be a bit more time before all of the features of this site are available. Please feel free to contact me at any time.
