Scooch over, Terry Gross

    My goal since starting this blogging gig for NewsWorks has been to get a good story on the radio.

    That hasn’t happened yet. But maybe, hopefully, fingers and toes crossed, soon.

    The other day I spent some time in a WHYY studio (with headphones and a mic and everything!) recording a conversation with Colwin Williams, the ex-con I’ve been writing about since April.

    Considering Williams did most of the talking, he was surprisingly calm. Me, I thought I was going to hurl. And so goes any dream of being the next Terry Gross. As if. 

    Anyway, wish me luck. And a big thanks to Jeanette Woods, NewsWorks community media editor and my personal sound guru.
