At 14, You Know Everything

Sometimes You’re the Windshield, Sometimes You’re the Bug

I’m Off…

This morning I am meeting a teenage girl at the park to interview her for the paper about a play she is in.  These are the stories I like to do – when the people you’re working with are excited to see you.  A little enthusiasm goes a long way in this line of work.
