Today I am pleased to let my readers know that my first articles for the Wilkes Gazette newspaper have been added to the online website at http://www.wilkesgazette.net/ this afternoon. I am very happy to again be serving as a freelance writer for Teresa Maynor's newspaper published in North Wilkesboro, NC. It is currently a weekly publication.
I contributed a restaurant review for J. Armonk's Restaurant Reviews column. I reviewed the local Sagebrush Steakhouse in Wilkesboro, NC. I ordered one of the advertised Five for $5.00 lunch specials and was very pleased with the Grilled Chicken Tips. In this time of economic hardship, the restaurant exceeded my expectations as to ambience, cleanliness, friendliness, quality and value.
In addition to the restaurant review, I am extremely proud to have a new weekly column entitled Jeanne's Travels Around Wilkes County. I will be highlighting places and events in Wilkes County which are pet-friendly. I will be collaborating with my dog Red. I had previously mentioned Red in my blog posts regarding our travels around the Outer Banks, NC (OBX) earlier in this year. We will highlight Wilkesboro's local dog park in our column next week. So, please continue reading my blog posts here or please visit www.wilkesgazette.net.

- My interest with writing began by composing poems about nature in my childhood. I also co-wrote a play in my 4th grade class when I lived in New Rochelle, NY. It generated enough positive feedback that my class put on the play in the school auditorium. I was fortunate to have a lead part. After my high school graduation, I entered the working world. For over 30 years I have been steadily gaining writing, editing and digital publishing skills. I began by composing letters and emails to company clients. I contributed to articles written for The Commuters Register based in Windsor, CT. Since 2009, I have added social media, digital publishing and blogging here in Wilkesboro, NC. Since 2010, I write ad copy for the listing descriptions for each of my 3 Internet shops open at Etsy.com. In 2012, I entered a poem about my dog Red in the World Poetry Contest. The poem was chosen for publication. I have written articles for the Winston-Salem Frugal Living Examiner and Hub Pages. In 2012, I acquired The Wilkes Gazette digital newspaper that was renamed the Wilkes County Gazette in 2014. I write under both my own name and my pen name, Jeanne Armonk.
