Best Newspaper Writer
Tim Bousquet
We at The Coast are naturally chuffed to be recognized in three separate categories, but we’ll say for the record we don’t host these readers’ polls to self-congratulate. In fact, news editor Tim Bousquet isn’t keen on the special attention. So, many thanks for the love, but maybe next year could you vote for other worthy folks in our community?
First Runner-up: Stephen Cooke
Second Runner-up Lezlie Lowe
