Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes, a million years ago.
How is social media changing news?
Everyone is becoming a journalist, in a way. Still, there's a great deal to be said for those with proper writing and journalistic skills.
What tools and software do you use to do your job?
MacBook Pro, WordPress, social networks, MS Word.
What's your favorite social network?
Twitter.
Why did you become a journalist?
I kind of backed into it. Writing articles seemed to be a natural extension of penning full-length books.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
I'll punt. The Age of the Platform (my fourth book) is my best one.
