We just saw a clip on you tube by Ira Glass. He talked about creating an interesting story and presenting that in an exciting way. He had some good points- editing out the boring part of your story or arent relavent to your story. I liked when he said that you are in charge of your story and as a writer we decide what to write and edit out. He has been in the business a long time and knew what he was talking about but watching the clip online and talking so informal seemed to contradict his persona.
