Emily's Salem blog
In February 2009, I started a blog about life in Oregon's often underappreciated capital city of Salem. Desperately Seeking Salem is about searching for the sublime, the silly and the surreal in a place that is trapped between being a big city and a small town. In September of 2009, the readers of Salem Weekly named DSS Salem's best blog. Blogging life in Salem also serves as inspiration for my local column.
