Interview

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Oh heck yes, and I want one for letters.

What's the funniest news-related #hashtag you've seen?

#MomTexts I receive are f'n amazing.

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

Don't sell me. If your story is great it will be pursued.

What's your favorite social network?

The next one.

Why did you become a journalist?

Because the ranks have been decimated by retirements and increased personnel pressure; somebody needs to be a watchdog in the interim.

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

I'm currently working on a story about something I'm not able to share.

When's the best time to pitch you?

During my caffeinated morning.

What's the best pitch you ever got?

Knuckleball. (I know, I know)

What's your favorite drink?

Anything with bourbon.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

At the stove.

What's the most common misperception about your beat?
