Hi, my name is Anastassia and I am in my second year of professional writing. My interests and hobbies encompass a vast variety of all fields, and my expertise
mainly consists of general knowledge on many different subjects and topics.
Basically, I have no one specific interest. Rather, anything that sparks my
curiosity, like the artificial heart that Parisian medics have developed or the
political controversy surrounding Ukraine’s possible joining of the U.N are topics I hear about and, out of personal interest, research.
I have never used information management software’s,
just basic search engines like Google chrome to research secondary information
sources. I had a paper due in my Russian culture class on Catherine the Great
and the Pugachov rebellion against her installment of serfdom and a specific issue I faced
while researching was having to tell whether a website is a good, legitimate,
qualified source to extract info from.
Podcasting is definitely intimidating to me as it
involves both research and technology (neither being my strong point)…I didn't even know what a podcast was until the first lecture of this class…but it doesn't seem too difficult in the sense that, if I pick the right topic I know I can
spin it off as appealing to the audience which is the basic intention of a
writer when he puts out material. However, I sense the actual online construction
of the podcast will be the death of me… yet a new experience which I may fall
in love with. Who knows!
For my podcast project I am thinking of going with either
the Everyday Einstein, 99% Invisible, or Manager Tools topics because these are
areas of particular interest to me. It is stimulating to hear what people think
of the medical advances we have made to this day- whether we are being too excessive
or not. Architecture and the meaning and history behind it is something I have
never really pondered so this could be an opportunity for something new, and
dealing with managers at work is something any former employee can go on a rant
about; discussing experiences, telling stories, and sharing tips.
If anyone has any questions please comment and stay
in touch for help purposes or anything else! J
