If you're going to be in Atlanta for the @ONA convention next week, join me, @Niketa, Angela Chao, Cynthia DuBose, and Leslie Rivera for a discussion about how you can leverage power -- even if you're the "only one" in the newsroom.

André 3000 selling out shows and then doing the same show for free a few months later is the most André 3000 thing ever, and I'm here for it. ajc.com/things-to-do/andre-3…

Earlier this year, as I was leaving my FT job to return to freelancing, I said I wanted to do three things: 1. Write more profiles 2. Write a column 3. Write a cover story And they’ve all happened so far. Stay tuned for my first cover story dropping early next year! 🙌🏾
