It’s like a wanted poster, isn’t it?
My name is David Svien and my journalistic “career” has been dedicated to chafing editors everywhere.
Which is why I now write for myself.
Before I started this blog Aug. 15, 2012, my words appeared in the Whidbey News-Times, Coupeville Examiner, Everett Herald, Nisqually Valley News, Federal Way News, Skagit Valley Herald and a ton of fly-by-night “papers” that crashed and burned.
Some of my credentials:
1993 Best Sports Column — Washington Newspaper Publishers Association
1997 Best General Column — WNPA
2011 Best Humorous Column — WNPA
2011 Best Education Story — WNPA
I also placed 2nd in a spelling bee one time and I won a DVD copy of “The Mary Tyler Moore Show: Season 7” in an internet contest.

I will listen. I may not agree. But I will listen.
Were you the fat guy in the Redskins suit at the game?
Born and bred Steelers fan (6 Super Bowl titles), baby. No way I would rep the Redskins.
Thank you David for the wonderful posts and photos.

I am in one of the photos and I don’t approve. Please take me off now. I am the one who pulled a muscle or 20.
You want to be more specific and narrow it down?
There are 4,767 articles on Coupeville Sports, and many thousands of photos. Which photo, in which story, do you have a problem with?
Nevermind It’s fine.
The family and fans of Abbie Jackson of Charles Wright Academy really appreciate the kind words in your article about her play in the district volleyball tournament last weekend.
You are doing a phenomenal job. Thanks
Amazing job!
David: Thanks for your incredible fascination and work. My university is the University of Florida (Not Weil U). Need to give them their due.
Thanks for the heads-up, Mr. Elzinga. I went and changed it.
