Goblin Radio Story
This was the first story I have had broadcast on All the Best. Which was pretty exciting. It opened my eyes to the fact that you can find stories in places you may never have thought of otherwise.
The first thing I did was sit down with Adam and come up with interview questions for my Dad; questions that would really allow him to go into detail about how he came up with the Goblin Story, why he...
My Mum's Story
I’m currently in the midst of producing a radio story about my Mum, who died from Cystic Fibrosis when I was 4 years old. I’m nearing the end of my paper edit, trying to come up with a way to reflect on what I talked about; to make sense of it. When I first thought of this story, it was going to be a story about a few people with Cystic Fibrosis. I had planned on telling their stories, and my...
Why I love radio...
I first became interested in the idea of emotion, sound and story telling when I was in high school. This had nothing to do with radio – I initially wanted to make music videos. What I loved about them, at the time, was the idea of linking a sound to an emotion; then linking that to an image, a moment, a story.
I can’t remember when I lost interest in music videos, or the idea of making them,...

I’ve spent the last 2 and a half months working at the Hostel in the Forest, a few miles from Brunswick, GA. There have been edible plant, primitive skills and pan drum workshops. I’ve learned all about Humanure composting, bettered my knowledge in gardening with herbs, flowers, fruits and…

One thing I find really bizarre and unsettling is this continuous effort everyone seems to make to have a perfect read on everyone else, as if everything is that simple. It’s not? It’s not. It isn’t.
I keep seeing all these pieces floating around the internet about how you should date a guy or…

It’s late and I have to wake in six hours to take a bus to somewhere beautiful and quiet with people I love and I’m thinking about people I could’a should’a did love and I wonder if they think of me sometimes, when it’s late and they hear wind chimes and it’s quiet out and the moon arcs its spine…

Just remember Ayn Rand was on welfare.

I finally found a second job.
I’m a University notetaker! Sweet. Except, I hardly ever write good notes for myself. Not because I can’t, but because I find doing the readings, extra research and just doing the assignments according to the criteria to be more productive. In lectures, and even tutorials, I usually end up drifting off. So I’m a little out of practice, eeek.
My main notetaking work is in classes...
