re: the peak

if you notice that things I write for the illustrious SFU student newspaper The Peak are a little different from my personal work, well, good call.

I've discovered that writing for an audience often actually means writing for what your editor thinks the audience is. according to the Peak this means business students. hells if I know why, but there you go. and according to the Peak, business students are not interested in things like "allusion," "poetic phrasing" or "cleverness." ok, they didn't say that last part, but the keeping it simple for business students is all true.

I also blame the CUP, but as they won't return my phone calls it's pretty fruitless. just kidding. nobody calls the CUP.
