A Changing of the Guard at Plainfield Patch

Former Romeoville Patch editor takes the reins in Plainfield.

As many of you read on Friday, after nearly two years at the helm at Plainfield Patch, editor Karen Sorensen is to help build our newest site, Joliet Patch, from the ground up.

Starting today, I'll have the daunting task of trying to take over where Karen left off, and I know I've got big shoes to fill. 

Fortunately, Plainfield isn't uncharted territory for me. Some of you may remember me from my eight-year stint at The Enterprise newspaper, where I covered everything from schools to business to police news.

More recently, I served as editor of Plainfield Patch's "neighbor," .

Effective today, I'm officially making the shift to Plainfield, and I'm hoping to hit the ground running — and I want to hear from you. Got any story ideas? Feedback? Things you'd like to see on Plainfield Patch? Drop me a line at shannon.antinori@patch.com.
