Anything could be a story! February 10, 2008

When you are in the process of learning, anything could inspire you.
A word or two, on the go from your seniors, especially the head of the news desk.
How can an ordinary event be an interesting story for the readers?
On that day, I could get a few tips falling off casually while walking with the editor to the next cabin. “Just look around, even a queue at a venue is a story by itself. If you can share a useful info for the reader, that makes him sit up and read the report entirely!”
And that evening, I found the ‘real’ queue and could also share a bit of useful info. I made a better report this time!
When I read the report when it was published, I was happy to read it once again! We got mails from the readers who bought the precious music albums at throw away prices, thanking for the info, I felt I was really learning to write. Write better!
