Features writer Paula Davenport is in here with the kids now talking about interviewing. Pia will be in here soon to help them plan their story ideas.
We have been discussing what a newspaper needs to look like to get the attention of the average teenager. They have good ideas--I'll share some later. So far, they are feeling pretty largely forgotten in the newspaper. They don't buy them, obviously, and they don't see themselves in there, either. We are discussing, "What would make you pick up your parents' copy?"
