Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes! Wrote some college papers on one. Lots of letters.
How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?
Only for stories that are relevant to what I've done. If someone pitches me then disappears when I follow up, why bother?
What tools and software do you use to do your job?
Inky, thick line (1 mm) pens like Pilot or Zebra, stacks of notebooks. Google Docs, Otter (for English), Olympus recorder.
When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?
Drinking coffee at a cafe, walking the baby or the dog.
