Apparently all of the students from the first session presented by Eric Adelson, including myself, were inspired enough to return to his second session. Adelson decided to use this second session, which was originally supposed to address finding a story within a game, as an open forum. Students asked questions ranging from "How do I make the most of my internship?" to "How do you write about sports that aren't interesting?" The main point that really hit home with me was when Adelson said: " The stories you write aren't about sports, they are about people who play sports." It is up to the writer to make people care about sports, even if they know nothing about it. Sports writers must paint a picture, tell the reader what the sights, smells, sounds, etc. where like and what the turning point of the game was in order to tell the story accurately. I really enjoyed sitting there and absorbing all of the information Adelson was sharing. It made me wish for a sports writing class at NSU... (hint, hint)
