So, as I have stated in my first few entries, one of the main responsibilities that my new internship supervisor wants me to take on is writing feature stories for the Wake Forest Sports website: www.wakeforestsports.com.
Last week, I sat down with my first subject, a WFU cross-country runner who competes internationally in triathlon. I know a lot of people who compete in triathlons, but I never really knew how the sport worked and how people even know where to go to compete, etc. I learned a lot about it throughout my conversation with my subject and am definitely looking forward to seeing how he performs both in his upcoming race this weekend and in the 2012/2016 Olympics if he qualifies.
The point of this blog entry? To tell you how excited I am that I just finished my first draft! For some reason I had writer's block all weekend and just could not formulate a good angle or format for the story. However, I was finally able to sit down and turn his quotes into prose tonight and I am really looking forward to my supervisor's feedback tomorrow.
I don't want to spoil the excitement by putting the article up just yet! But once it's up on the website, I'll provide the link.
Until then,
Calais
