Charleston City Paper Turns 10
"Our early years were fun and full of possibility, but man, were they lean and mean," founding editor Stephanie Barna writes in an editor's note introducing the paper's anniversary issue. "We moved here in the middle of the summer from other cities, confident that we could figure out Charleston fast enough to put out an informed and relevant newspaper," she writes. "We relied on our previous experience in the alt-weekly world to establish a newspaper that reflected the city, not so much the people who put it together."
