I Get a Job on Television

My first day working at NTV was quite the experience. I walked in gingerly, awestruck by the recognizable faces- famous faces, if you like, as seen on TV. The business desk was located toward the end of the newsroom, sandwiched between the changing room and the voice booth. Its location…

But Why Am I Telling You These Things?

Reasons for my storytelling. I am a terribly shy person. I get tongue-tied at the most awkward moments. Earlier in life, I thought I would get by by simply avoiding people and hiding behind books instead. When I started school, I realized that this strategy was not well thought out…
