I know the intro and everything following is really cheesy, but hey, it’s fun!

Yes! I like all of the seconds! (I will almost certainly copy you in the near future.)

Jennifer,
You clearly underestimate your appeal as a video reporter! Even with the medium quality video, I think you could be the next Diane Sawyer. All you need now is some higher level video equipment, some professional lighting and video editing equipment, and an adoring fan base.
I volunteer to be the first on that list…….John H.

Fantastic! I knew this was an awesome idea :)
I have a couple suggestions for improvement, but we can talk about that next time I see you.
Looking forward to the next one!

Ha, thank you all so much. It’s all I could do at the time, but it will be a lot of fun to see where it goes. And it will be a lot more interactive too.

That was great! You sounded confident and friendly. Did you have fun at the convention?

What a great start! I look forward to watching you as you develop your style and get into your own grove. Well done :)
One tip to take or leave: watch how often you say “um”.

Ahhh, I love it!! The video update was a great idea, and the theme music in the beginning and at the end was a nice touch! ;) I really enjoyed this. Will you be doing more of these?

Thanks, Liz. Yes, I plan to do one every week, but hopefully much better. We’re see. :)

Yes Rose, I said um a lot to try to make it sound like I wasn’t reading off a screen (that failed) so next time I’ll try to do it from memory :)
