Writing for the Media

For those of you who have followed my blog at all in the past might remember that I encourage my students in Writing for the Media to create blogs themselves. I often link to those blogs from this very blog. In our class this morning, we spoke about what 100 words looks like on a blog entry, and so here are 100 words or so. It really isn't a lot of writing and, in fact, there isn't really a lot that can be said in 100 words, but it is a start. And that's one of the aims of the course: to begin the process of writing and doing so regularly, and with a framework in mind. And, in case you were counting, the word count is 129 words.
