DOING THA NEWS THANG

I’m freelancing for HDNews this week, and don’t know how much time I’ll have to devote to the blog. I’m working with photojournalist Jeff Moore this week (he’s standing next to me at the far left).

I officially wasn’t supposed to start until today, but I worked with Jeff last night and produced a feature story about a young hockey player who’s been tearing up the ice since age five. The catch, the young star is a girl, and she was one of the first in the Atlanta area to pick up a hockey stick.

This morning, I woke up early to meet Jamia Nash at the airport. If her name sounds familiar, it is because the eleven-year-old performed at the Oscars. She very camera savvy if ya know what I mean. Nash has been singing and performing since age two.

If it sounds like I’m busy, this is only the beginning. I could be heading to Miami to cover the blackouts that are affecting Florida. I’ve already called a couple of my news friends at WTVT in Tampa, as well as WFOR, and WSVN in Miami.

This is all hear say, but outage seems to be affecting the state, and the cause is yet to be determined. Stay tuned.
