I'm the author of more than a dozen books--but I began as a newspaper writer, the first woman in every job I had, working my way up to associate editor and editorial writer. I live in Bethesda, Maryland in a retirement facility, but am currently working on a new book series (published by MITeen Press, a consortium of MIT Press and Candlewick). If I can help emerging journalists I'd be happy to do so.
I'm going to forward this on to the journalism teacher at my school. Sounds like a great opportunity for students :)
