Hi, my name is Laura Blewitt and I have spent all my days avoiding any unfortunate surname-related puns. I was born in Cleveland, Ohio to two accountants who were bred in Northeast Ohio. We left the Midwest for London and later found ourselves outside of Houston, Texas. I began writing for The Daily Texan in 2006 and later went on to report for The New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung and KUT 90.5. Four months after my graduation from The University of Texas at Austin I became a full-time Web producer for KTBC FOX 7. By the summer of 2009 I found myself working for PR Newswire in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Editor & Publisher called me a whippersnapper and gave me unsolicited career advice. I’m waiting for journalism’s big comeback.
