Times Insider explains who we are and what we do and delivers behind-the-scenes insights into how our journalism comes together. Some writers aim to develop one area of expertise over the course of their careers. “Let’s put it this way: I don’t have a beat,” Ms. Holmes said. Ms. Holmes is the incoming writer of Work Friend, a column published by the Sunday Business section of The New York Times. It is a formula she’s used to, having explored workplace culture in Sad Desk Salad, a column for Bloomberg Businessweek.

In the months before Christopher Paolini wrote the book that made him a star in young adult fantasy, he built a hobbit hole. His family self-published the book, and for more than a year, he promoted it as he could, hand-selling copies outside bookstores and giving presentations at schools. Eventually, Carl Hiaasen, a best-selling novelist, picked up a self-published copy at a grocery store while on a family trip to Montana. His stepson — who, according to Hiaasen, said “Eragon” was “better than Harry Potter!” — finished the 500-page book in a day. Hiaasen passed the book to his editor at Random House Children’s Books, connecting Paolini to the New York publishing world.

On Halloween, the pop star Sabrina Carpenter uploaded a music video to YouTube for her new song “Feather.” That was a Tuesday. By the end of the week, a Catholic priest had been stripped of his administrative duties because of it. In the video, Ms. Carpenter, 24, a former Disney child star with more than 31 million followers on Instagram, dances through Our Lady of Mount Carmel-Annunciation Parish, a Catholic church in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn. In another scene, she appears to be splattered with blood after a fight scene in a gym. The Diocese of Brooklyn denounced the video in a statement to the Catholic News Agency, saying it was “appalled at what was filmed.”

I was making videos for seven years before this format started to take off. Expanding into brand dealsIt wasn't until a few months into creating my apartment series that I started making money from it. For example, it's important to me to be able to share people's stories from all walks of life — from Corcoran's $10 million apartment to someone who lives in a van. I'm just making videos that I enjoy with people who I want to make videos with. Overall, though, I enjoy making this content because I, along with my viewers, am so fascinated by how other people live.
Mark T. Vande Hei, 55, is a NASA astronaut who spent a year in space orbiting Earth. I completed my training to become a NASA astronaut in 2011. In March, I returned to Earth after spending 355 days in orbit aboard the International Space Station. On this latest flight, the Russians added two new modules, so the ISS now seems closer to a seven-bedroom home. Though I didn't go out on a spacewalk myself during this latest flight because of a pinched nerve in my neck, I have in the past.
