Busy Day

It's really hard to track down some people at Southern. It was a very on-the-phone-a-lot type of day. I finally was able to get a hold of the people I needed to so I could get some stuff accomplished. More recently, I was in the Accent office from 6:30 p.m. until 10 p.m. tonight. It didn't even seem that long since I was busy editing and working with the other Accent staff members. It was fun tonight...a lot more fun that last week when I didn't have much of a clue about what I was supposed to be doing. I think I might be getting the hang of this whole News Editor thing. So here is the best and worst of working tonight. Best: I finalized my news budget for next week's Accent, ran it by our editor and e-mailed it to the people who needed it. I feel like that's a huge accomplishment in itself. But there's more. I also got writers for the last two stories in next week's issue that needed writers. Yay! Now I only have to write one story for next week and I already have it half finished. Worst: I had to miss the David Payne drama. I'm so disappointed. I really wanted to see it. Maybe somebody took a video I could watch though. I hope so...
