Here is some media coverage of “I am Facing Foreclosure .com” from last week. Both the TV and the newspaper coverage is a good recap of my story – for those who haven’t read the rest of the blog yet. <\/p>\n

First, San Francisco KRON Chanel 4<\/a>. Thanks to Maureen Kelly for coming out to Sacramento area and interviewing me at Karen’s Bakery<\/a> coffee shop in Folsom.<\/p>\n
