Please, step into my office ... this Friday it's a corner table at Biggby Coffee. 

Because Macomb Patch doesn't have the traditional brick and mortar setup, you might say all of Macomb is our office. Wherever there is an Internet connection and steady stream of caffeine, you can be sure we won't be far behind.

This Friday, Macomb Patch will be hosting "office hours," so you can stop by and put a face with the name that comes to your inbox every morning. Patch Editor Jenny Whalen, that's me, will be at the Macomb Biggby from 10 a.m. to noon. I'll even bring treats.

So if you have a news story to pitch, an event to publicize or an honor student you just can't help but brag about, let me hear it. If you're interested in sharing your expertise as a blogger, we can help you set up your first post. If you're a business owner who wants to learn how to claim your listing in the Patch directory or find out about advertising, I'll be able to point you in the right direction.

Parents, coaches, students, seniors, teachers, officials ... if you call Macomb home, I want to meet you.

Look for the girl in the bright green T-shirt. See you Friday!

This is only the first of many office hours to come. Is there another place or time you would suggest? Tell me in the comments.
