Our Man in Austin ... or is it Houston?

Austin Statesman-American intern Bill Oram was asked recently to string a high school all-star baseball game for the Houston Chronicle, America's 10th largest daily newspaper. Here's what he had to say about it:

"It was cool to be writing for such a huge and respected paper," Bill writes. "However, it didn't make anything any easier. No stats were provided. I guess no matter what level you're working at it's all still the same skills. And while getting published in the Chronicle is fairly glamorous, the actual process of reporting and writing is no more so than it is for any other publication."

Bill details the whole story on his blog.
