And now, an award-winning journalist

By Logan | June 7, 2008

That’s right folks, Dyneuxmite co-founder Logan Molyneux was awarded two prizes at the Associated Press’s regional competition this year. I won first place in General Reporting for this story I wrote about vaccines. I also won second place in the reviews category for my dining reviews. (I really can’t remember which three reviews I entered, but I think they included this one and this one.) The reporting award was in a category of papers with circulations between 10,000 and 50,000 in the Utah-Idaho-Spokane area, so about five or six different papers, I think. But the reviews winners were chosen from all papers in the area, including bigger ones like the Salt Lake Tribune and the Idaho Statesman. So in the reviews category, it was the entertainment guy from the Tribune, then me, then the movies guy from the Desert News. So even the second place one is pretty cool. I got a big plaque for my first place win and a check for $25 (!) and I got a certificate for the second place one. Sorry for the bragging, but I’m pretty excited.

  1. I’m so proud of you! I knew all that hard work eating out wouldn’t go to waste, and you even have a larger waist line to prove it. Way to go!

  2. For the record, I’ve worn size 34 pants since I was a junior in high school.

  3. That’s right, Logan. I made a slight mistake. Your waste line hasn’t changed. It’s mine that looks larger, but at least we get free meals almost once a week, and I don’t have to cook dinner.

  6. It’s too bad that I wasn’t wearing a t-shirt when I read this. Now I have to sew back all the buttons that just popped off my shirt as my chest swelled with pride. Way to go Logan!
