One Great City is the blog of me, Whitney. In addition to being a long time member of the internet community, I have also spent several years in recent memory lurking about on various blogs, always reading, but never showing my face.

In June of 2008, in preparation for several Big Events coming up in my life, I finally decided to make my internet presence known and official. Initially, I created One Great City as a platform for long-distance communication between myself and my family, my friends, and curious strangers while I ventured to Bosnia and Hercegovina for three weeks during the summer. Having served its purpose in that context beautifully, I decided to continue blogging about my transition from Washington, DC back to Cincinnati, my ceaseless job hunt, and later, my move to Nashville.

One Great City now serves as my forum for commentary on music, film, popular culture, and most importantly, books. You may also see memes, surveys, and long-winded diatribes about my irritating compulsion to see LOST through to its end.
