I'm not like your normal Patch editor. When your local editor takes a much-needed vacation, I take the reins, ensuring you still get your news. I'm like a subsitute teacher, but don't have to deal with the kids playing pranks on me.
I also work the national desk from time to time, typing up stories of wider interest.
