It's hard to write consistent journal entries while you're a full-time college student and you try to file a few public radio stories in the mean time.
In the last update, in the summer, I mentioned that I had applied to be a scholar at the Third Coast International Audio Festival. I got in. It was my first time. I earned brilliant kudos for some of my stories. It wasn't all great, but a lot of it was. I met one of my role models, Ira Glass; that was surreal!
Now I am in the middle of the first cycle of the Gordon Parks High public radio project; because of that I have created a separate journal for it. Are you interested in an experiment where the University of Minnesota shows "at-risk" high school students what public radio is and how to produce basic stories using sound? Well, here's the latest update.
