About Jeremiah »

I am a 25-year-old aspiring baseball writer. I grew up to stories of Willie Mays, the Miracle Mets and the Bronx Zoo from my father. Although my playing days never amounted to much, baseball has always remained my passion. I moved to Boston from the midwest and have come to both enjoy and loathe the hype and hysteria of living in the heart of Red Sox Nation. The Twins are my team, a result of being born and raised in Iowa and attending college in Minnesota. Although I'd consider myself a baseball fan first and foremost and a Twins fan second. If you're ever in the mood to talk baseball, or any sport for that matter, you can drop me a line or leave a comment on my blog.

    Good morning Jeremiah! I'd like to refer you to a piece that was written by Juan which I think could serve as a good tool for younger writers.

    Hey Jeremiah, I put this piece together on Jon Wilhite. He survived the car accident that took Nick Adenhart's life. Its a pretty uplifting story and I was hoping you would check it out and let me know what you think.

    As we all know, there are wrestlers throughout the world that are some of the greatest to ever lace them up. People who are not familiar with these people need to know about them. I want you or anyone you know to write about one international wrestler outside North America.

    This is my latest competition and I feel you could do well in it. Check it out! There is only a short time to sign up, make sure to go there as quick as you can.
