Let me reintroudce myself, and this blog
Having just come back from a vacation to Memphis, TN and played catch-up, I thought now seemed like a good time to share some news with you.
Many of you know me as the entertainment reporter for Middletown, Hamilton and all points in between. That’s still true, but I am also now the Arts and Entertainment editor for Cox’s Southwest Group of newspapers. That means that in addition to writing the articles having to do with plays, concerts, art exhibits, festivals, etc., I now also choose which ones to write about and decide where they go in the newspaper.
I’m in charge of the entertainment stories that appear in our Life insert on Friday, and I handle some of the content that appears on other days, such as Roger Miller’s Middletown Past columns, which I am placing online. Same goes for the very well-read Amish cook column. And of course, I cover news about the local arts, such as the ever-popular topic of the Pendleton Art Center coming to Middletown.
This blog won’t be just a repackaging of my stories, but a forum for me to get suggestions from you about local entertainment. Is there really “nothing to do” here, as so many people complain? Not from where I sit. The way I see it, my job is to give the lie to that idea.
And just in case anyone remembers my days as Sir Critic, yes, I still write about movies, but I do that on my own blog, which you can find here. Didn’t think much of Eat Pray Love, but I thought Scott Pilgrim vs. the World should have done much better than it has at the box office.
Have any questions/comments for me about what I do here? You can post a comment below or shoot me an email at erobinette@coxohio.com
As the old song goes, let me entertain you … there, now you’ll have that stuck in your head all day! ;)
