The thing is, I seem to have *ahem* misplaced a lot of reporters lately, somehow.
Beatrice suggests that I might want to change my socks, or perhaps pay Buccaneer's Den facilities a visit more than twice a year, but I laugh at such suggestions!
No, it seems to me that this must be the most dangerous, the most challenging of tasks!
A task so daunting, even the bravest warriors of the land have to think not twice, but three times, before approaching it!
A task which I, in all due modesty, face regularly! So, you say, am I not up to the task? Of course I am!
However, since I need to sleep for at least part of the day, I require assistance with the reporting!
Sooner or later, the air will be filled with the anguished howls of those who are deprived of their news - and this cannot be!
And so, while I wait for good Masou to come off life support, after a misleading tip lead him to a nest of ancient wyrms, rather than a story,
I have dusted off this scroll, and present it here to you!

Feeling a bit daunted by a 'full' reporting role, but would still like to give it a try?
Well, perhaps one of these would suit you more!

If you can think of a reporting style that you would enjoy, and think you can
turn in articles of that nature at least once a month, then let me know!
These are intended to be 'micro reporting' jobs,
with a smaller time commitment than the 'jack of all trades' reporting positions.
