+0000 Saint Paul Almanac http://saintpaulalmanac.org/?p=3674 The Line wrote a story on the Saint Paul Almanac, which offers a fantastic overview of the community vision we Almanacians have for our beloved Saint Paul. Editor Kimberly Nightingale sees the book as a model for nothing less than a revolution in American publishing. And her fusion of multiethnic, history-and-culture-rich, hyperlocal storytelling is resonating in places like Los Angeles, Portland, and Pittsburgh; people in a dozen cities across the country have asked her for help in creating their own versions of the Almanac. Finally, we have new writing from Barbara Cox on night light hockey at Groveland, Michael Maupin tags us with 25 random things about Saint Paul and himself, and read an extract from David Haynes' book about the great cookie wars!]]> http://saintpaulalmanac.org/news/blog/the-almanac-in-the-press-coming-hmongtasticness-on-monday-night-new-writing-from-barbara-cox-michael-maupin-and-david-haynes/feed/
