Derek-SF says: Profiled in Shift 24 Sep 02 // 10:09AM

I talk a bit about the history of, and the impetus for, the City Stories Project in this Shift interview. Sorry I didn't get a chance to name all the wonderful CS sites!


Derek-SF says: Happy birthday! 22 Jul 02 // 5:26PM

Last week, our birthday slipped by quietly. The City Stories Project is one year old! We grew to 23 sites in one year - that's a new site almost every two weeks. Congrats, everyone! To celebrate, take a trip through our ever-growing archives and enjoy a story or two.


Derek-SF says: Trip Lit likes us! 3 Jun 02 // 6:06PM

Trip Lit, an e-zine showcasing travel writing from up-and-coming writers, has named City Stories one of the best travel sites on the web. Congrats, everyone! And be sure to check out the rest of the list, and the site. Great stuff!


Derek-SF says: Lonely Planet link 15 May 02 // 9:45AM

Travel book publisher and friend to backpackers everywhere Lonely Planet loves the City Stories Project! They linked to us from their travel writing section, saying: "Get the backstory behind the bricks and mortar: real people tell real stories about the cities they live in and the cities they've visited at the aptly named City Stories." Thanks, Lonely Planet!


Derek-SF says: Big in Detroit! 4 Dec 01 // 12:34PM

The City Stories Project got some good press today. The Detroit News called us: "A brilliant example of the dedication and beauty of the independant web." Maybe this will inspire someone in Detroit to start a City Stories site! Any takers?

Derek-SF says: Two new sites! 31 Jul 01 // 5:11PM

Please give a warm welcome to the two newest City Stories member sites, Maastricht Stories and Chicago Stories! Maastricht is the oldest city in the Netherlands, and the stories there are presented in Dutch by Raoul Dovermann and friends. And Chicago is the windy city in Illinois, coming to you from the mind of Paul McAleer.

Welcome, guys!
