I wrote a post a few day ago on ‘So what?’

Yes, why should your story be of any interest to the reader? One of the best answers is that they relate to the story. It means the story is meant exactly for the readers of your newspaper. Or you tell them something that they relate to.

Now, when I relate to a particular issue, I would definitely be interested in what happened after a reporter brought the issue or the story out in print! What next?

Once my editor said, “There’s a lot to do within our stories!” I mistook it for doing the report better. I thought the report was not complete.

But he meant the follow up of many stories that we had brought to the public earlier. In a way, the theory of the-story-not-complete holds good. A report is never complete without follow up!
