My first story

I went into the newsroom this morning a little timid but I was ready to work. I picked up a story right a way and worked on it that morning and afternoon. I had to call a woman who worked for the new Columbia visitors center at city hall. I wrote the story in a relatively good time frame but I had to go to marching practice. I went back to the news room and edited my story. I learned that I have to cq everything and check silly AP mistakes. I’m still learning the ropes so I will get the hang of it in no time. I feel that if I write more stories and spend more time in the newsroom it will be beneficial and I will get a better experience of the process.
