Two features by Reader staff writer Maya Dukmasova and one multimedia series collaboration with The TRiiBE have been nominated as “the best of the best” in alternative journalism by the Association of Alternative Newsmedia (AAN).
“Some of my favorite pieces of writing are profiles. . . . They don’t matter in any way beyond themselves, but they stick in my mind as being really good writing,” Dukmasova says. “And that’s what the Reader is for. One of its goals is to uplift writing, so I feel like that story is accomplishing a mission of this newspaper as well.”
