I get my hard news from many sources, your papers, The Economist, TV, online, but I want to communicate that, hard news aside, I appreciate good writing. In particular I want you to know that I subscribe to (winter) the Sun Journal and (summer) the Press Herald — largely for the quality of the writing.
I want to express my appreciation, especially, for two writers: Victoria Hugo-Vidal and Mark LaFlamme. In their own quite different styles and subject matters they get the job done. Whether you consider this worth printing or not I hope you will let your staff (especially the two I mentioned) know that they are indeed appreciated.
