About “Twenty Pounds of Headlines…”

“Now the teen preacher looked so baffled, when I asked him why he dressed, with twenty pounds of headlines stapled to his chest.”

My name is Nick DiUlio, a freelance writer and editor from New Jersey. I have been passionate about the craft of writing since I was old enough to spell, and this love has led to a successful career in journalism and creative nonfiction. As a freelancer, I have covered a wide range of topics and personalities, as my published work has focused on everything from profiles of artists and important political figures to hard-news stories with both national and local appeal; from restaurant and beverage reviews to tips on fashion and finance; from health and wellness pieces to celebrity Q&A’s.

My work has appeared in several local, regional and national publications—both in print and online—including Philadelphia Magazine, Slate.com, Miller-McCune, New Jersey Monthly, Eating Well, and Delaware Today. Additionally, I am the South Jersey Bureau Chief for New Jersey Monthly and an adjunct journalism professor at Rowan University. To be sure, the broadness of my body of work seems only to be matched by my boundless interest in almost every subject imaginable (except Warren Zevon). Check out some of my most recently published work here.

At Twenty Pounds of Headlines, readers will find everything from (non)sensical political rants to album reviews; endorsements of societal taboos to essays on popular culture and family; histrionics of self to the deprecation of living in a world with monsters and saviors. So have a cup of tea—or maybe a dram of whiskey—and stay a while.
