MARJORIE R. ASTURIAS - Freelance Writer
NEWSPAPER COLUMNS

The Grand Junction (Colorado) Free Press publishes my column every Wednesday. In it I expound on everything from politics to economics to wind energy to What Women Want. I've written probably a hundred or so of them, but I'll just add links to the most recent ones here. If you want to read more, just head on over to the Free Press' Web site and do a search for my name in the Search box at the top right hand side of the page.

And of course, what would a column be without some testimonials and feedback from readers?

"Ms. Asturias, you apparently are unaware that you are the worst type of hypocrite of all -- the uneducated kind, devoid of common sense and morality."

"Two words for you - 'Right......ON!!!!'"

"Your [sic] going to do a good job taking over for [local liberal columnist for rival paper] when she kicks the bucket. Your [sic] a little raw and immature compared to her but I suspect your [sic] less than half her age, inexperienced yet good looking. Qualified? [O]nly time will tell."

"Good analysis, good writing, good attitude!"

"I have tried for the last three weeks to read you [sic] poorly thought out, and poorly executed column. My conclusion? You're not stupid, your [sic] not uneducated, you are simply ignorant. You are ignorant of real life, real people and real problems."

"As a self-absorbed anti-journalist, you must understand you're going to get flak for screwing up so badly and somehow getting it into print."

"Great column today! Need I say more?"

"I often laugh at your one-sided, misguided attempts at journalism but [your recent column] takes the cake. Try and at least get your facts straight before parading your tripe before the public."

"Thank you for the delicious 'tongue in cheek' column in today's paper. It was hilarious."

I love you guys, too.
