Self portrait, morning on the state border<\/em><\/p>\n

Hi. I’m Steve Campion, and this is the page that corrals many of my interests and online activities into one place. I bike, read, write, photograph, bird, research, work in a library, work online, and carve elaborately-ornamented 17th century carriage trusses. (Eh, that last one isn’t quite true.)<\/p>\n

Online I write WA-List<\/strong><\/a>, a state-themed website about anything and everything Washington. Its two companion sites — Northwest People<\/a><\/strong> and the bustling Washington State Events Calendar<\/a><\/strong> — shares people portraits and upcoming events we happily encounter along the way.\u00a0 My book reviews appear on the Mostly NF<\/strong><\/a> book review blog. My photography shows up on both of those sites, but also on Flickr, Facebook, and library or travel websites from time to time.<\/p>\n

Many other things I do don’t<\/em> appear online. My dirty laundry, for instance, stays properly in the basket near the closet door. Even though I earned honors and a college degree in politics, my political view today stay mostly on the ballot.\u00a0 Most contemporary politics, as far as I’m concerned, smells worse than my aforesaid dirty laundry.<\/p>\n

There are other Steve Campions in this world — something I wasn’t aware of until I began pioneering social media for my library system in 2006. They may well be wonderful gentlemen each: artists, athletes, councilmen, reporters, and random guys in the phone book. But let me assure you that they are imposters all<\/em>! They clearly show good taste in names, though.<\/p>\n

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to grab a book, strap on a camera, secure my laptop, and go biking around the state. Please join me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
