Easy Writing

I think some writing is easy for me because I can use my own experiences or experiences of friends.  I've lived in five different cities and have met a lot of people with each one of them having a unique story.  I also have been playing hockey for twenty-seven years and that in it self is a story.  Some of the troubles I have with writing is thinking of new ideas, I think most people that read something funny are much more apt to continue reading.  Would you rather be laughing, questioning, or to be challenged after you read an article?

  1. A great paper should make you do all three! While humor is a great way to interest your audience, as a journalism student I feel that more dramatic or riveting news story holds an audience attentions better. If you want your readers to feel challenged, I suggest including a question in your introduction or even your conclusion; something to keep them guessing, that can be linked to your subject or even a completely different view not discussed in your paper. New ideas come from how you expose yourself to the world; read, write, continue to learn!
