Our day today started with the daily newspapers.We were asked to go through the newspaper and see if any headline, news story or picture gave us inspiration for a new story we could do on our own. There was a discussion of these ideas.Later, we had a mock interview session. This was a followup to a lecture on 'Interviewing Skills' given the previous day.Kaveri Murthy, a classmate was interviewed by the rest of us about the trekking expedition trip she was going to go on in May.
Later, we had a guest in the classroom - Mythily Ramachandran who is a free lancer. She has been writing for over ten years. She shared with us her experience. She told us about a few of her stories which were unusual and how she enjoyed writing them. She split us into three groups for an activity to teach us again the importance of valid questions during an interview. The activity was to frame a set of questions for three differnt people.The first group had to set questions for a celebrity; group two for a lady fire officer and group three for a person who has just got out of a drug addiction.You can contact Mythily at myram86@yahoo.com
