Elizabeth Howell: Journalist & Editor

Howdy! I’m a Canadian journalist and blogger based in Ottawa, our seat of government and also home to a number of national associations and space companies. (Handy for doing stories, I must say).

My daily space exploration blog Pars3c is my pride and joy. It’s one of only a handful of blogs in Canada that talk about space, especially from a policy and business perspective.

I also hold two day jobs. I’m a web reporter/producer at CTV Ottawa responsible for managing the news website on weekends. Breaking sports scores, crime raids, elections, you name it. I also help the TV reporters create web extras for their stories.

On weekdays, I do freelance web reporting at the Ottawa Business Journal. I do a slew of breaking news stories first thing in the morning (ranging from local real-estate numbers to quarterly results) and then focus on features in technology, tourism and science for the rest of the day.

And I freelance. I’ve won a few awards for this work and my byline has appeared in places like the Globe and Mail, the Ottawa Business Journal, Air&Space Smithsonian, Florida Today, the Ottawa Citizen, the Canadian Medical Association Journal and the Space Review.

All in all, I’m pretty obsessed with writing and space exploration. But I have fun. I hope you enjoy being here, too.
