I've been up around this area my entire life so if anyone wants any details about the area, I can fill you in. I had a friend who used to be the SE at this paper, but ended up leaving to go back to his old gig.

 

Combined circulation (in their 11 papers) of 74,000. Kevin, this sounds right up your alley.

 

Definitely. I applied earlier this afternoon. Great chain of papers.

 

It's a great gig for someone right out of college as most of their content is high school gamers and features. The area is pretty dense mountain/forest region, but a lot stuff you can do around there. Littleton is a bit up there in NH, but if you want to take the drive you can reach Conway and Meredith to hit up the beach.
