G.T.'s Jennifer

Jennifer brought useful info and good stories to help describe what it's like as a reporter and editor and what it was like to cover various subjects when working for smaller papers.

The part about "waxing," made me laugh, I don't know but it sounds like cutting out articles, gluing them then taking a picture sounds tedious and a pain in the ass. How bad would it suck to notice a typo after its all said and done.

I liked the tips on advancing through the ranks. Starting as a news reporter/writer and move on to bigger papers or being a section editor and you can stay where you are.

A quote she said in the end about feature writing I liked and wrote down "don't talk about the bakery talk about the pie."
