I'm really excited to be making this specific blog post because this is the second half of why I finally forced myself into blogging. Yes, the perfection of lifestyle blogging is fun, but it doesn't exactly translate to real life. However, blogging about journalism does.
But, yes. This is the second half of my blogging goals: Talking about journalism, my experiences as a student journalist and to potentially help any future journos find answers to their questions. So here we go, starting with a rough subject: covering a memorial.
On Nov. 15, a mother and daughter, Leslie and Paige Williams, were found in their home in Gainesville, Florida, stabbed to death. Alachua County Sheriff's Department reported that Paige was stabbed at least 30 times. The suspect is husband and father, Paul Williams. Leslie was the librarian and media teacher at Stephen Foster Elementary here in Gainesville; Paige, 15, was a student at Buchholz High School where she loved doing makeup for drama.
