Wherefore art thou?

(This story is from March, 2012.) The photos speak for themselves! This is my favorite condo in Downtown Austin. Wish we’d seen it on a sunnier day, but it was still spectacular. One of my favorite W quirks is its clever, high-rise condo-style, Juliet balconies. If you image-search the term…

“Ask a REALTOR” — my answers

Quite a few years ago, REALTOR.com had a pretty busy section called “Ask a REALTOR®” They mothballed it, and I stored my own contributions in my portfolio. Some of the questions are kind of interesting, though, so I decided to plunk a few of them down here. My favorite is…

Austin’s best recycling tool

Earlier today, I posted a few of my old pieces, one of which was a run-down of local options for recycling various things. The story is so dated that even the name of Austin’s recycle center has changed, not to mention all of the links. The best place to go if you want to know what to do with something you’re trying to dispose of is What Do I Do With…, courtesy of Austin Resource Recovery. Just start typing in the search box, and a drop-down list will populate with options for you to choose from.

I’ve moved julieholden.com here, to Medium. Frustrated by the vulnerability of WordPress, I decided to make a fresh start. My WP site was recently hacked, and fixing it required more knowledge of coding than I’ve ever had. My site has always been about writing, so my friend and former Tech Writing colleague, Anne Gentle, suggested I try Medium. (She sent me this article describing Signal v. Noise’s move here.)

The ABC’s of Solid Waste Services

(This story is from 2011. Some info is no longer accurate, but Austin did recently add STYROFOAM to their list of accepted items at the Recycle & Reuse Drop-off Center.) I submitted this article to our neighborhood newsletter. There’s some useful information here, so I’m sharing it online as well. …
