Freelancing for my local newspaper. Their HS football beat writer was battling cancer & I filled in for him for a season.
Have you ever used a typewriter?
I have never used a typewriter for a legitimate purpose. I found one at my grandpa's house when I was 10 & played around with it.
How is social media changing news?
It's including everybody. I'm from a small town and I've interacted with NY Times reporters and CNN anchors.
