Busy Week

Categories:

It was a busy week for sure. Not only did I host the Bread and Roses show, featuring Della Rae of DonorsResource.org and Janna Mock-Lopez of Goodness Magazine, which was such a treat to pull together, but I also came back the next day to create Saturday's, An Evening of Afrotainment.

I should probably take a step back as my week started on Sunday, March 8 at 11am until 7pm while in radio training with Marilynn. She provided some good tips that I was able to apply in preparation and while on air...I love "this moment of silience was brought to you by ________" fill in the blank that I was able to use during the Friday night interviews. When the conversation begins to flow like it did I start talking before I've completed the question in my head and I end up having a lapse or what some would call a senior moment, and I'm not a senior. The other technique I picked up on was shortening my statements, yah right, that will take some time as I'm a bit verbose by nature. This is one I have to work on when I'm on the Saturday night show especially when back announcing...in due time...
