Pitch #1
Hawthorne Times
The reason why I want to write about my Hawthorne internship is because it was a fun experience for me. It was also great to see my old friends there and to talk to them about upcoming events.Learning about Hawthorne Machinery will educate people about what goes on behind the scenes of this franchise. I am going to be talking about how Hawthorne Machinery has changed since the last time I was there because of the economy.
Pitch #2
During the summer I work for my grandparents' construction company. I enjoy working there because they have great customer service and customers that come in and sell and buy construction equipment from the company. There are 5 different divisions of the construction company. Also, as the economy changes the demand for jobs slows down and people get layed off. I have noticed these changes over the years that I've worked there.
Pitch #3
Tee Times
My mentor likes to play golf and I do too. During the internship we talked about golf a lot. Golf is a sport where practice is key to learning and winning games. High Tech High (HTH) has a golf team and is looking for students to join, learn and be apart of the community. Golf is important to me because it doesn't just relax me, it also is a fun way of getting together with friends, practicing and socializing. It is important for businesses to get to know there customers just like Hawtrhorne they take people to golf because they like them and they want to build a strong relationship with them.

Inspiring articles for others to read
Example provides for you in the way of inspiration, a good model to work from, a guide, etc.
Phil Mickelson
golf with Mickelson
The article that I was inspired by was on Phil Mickelson.The article provided a lot of detail that the reader could understands. I can see that each thought/quote is set up with spacings which allows the reader to slow down and value each piece of information. The author wants the readers to understand and get to know the characters in the story. I think in Ampersand I might use some of this writers ideas because it looks clean. You can see that the readers will understand the writing. Also, if the reader understands your writing they will then understand the characters and the story you are telling.

This article is about a football recruit who picks the college he will represent. This article was found on the yahoo home page. This is a good model because it also demonstrates what I like in the Phil Mickelson article. The article puts important people in bold letters. This helps readers focus on those characters that are important to the article and if they want they can look up those characters and read more about them. the author uses bullet points to show another way to represent a story and important information. This article is a great guide for me to follow if I have important information I need to write about.
trader joes article
The thing that I most liked about this article was its catchy title. I like that it told me there were things I should or should not buy, without really telling me until I opened the article. It catches the readers and makes them want to find out more about what is going on. This is inspirational to me because I want my readers to read my article. I think that the important way to do that is to have a catchy title or subtitle. I am working on not making a hook so literal and more figurative.

interview blog #3
http://www.golf.com/golf/tours_news/article/0,28136,2033769,00.html
They both are very good and they both tell a story. The people that are interviewing used everything when are learning today in class to write there interviews and both are the same but different in some ways.They both start off with a strong but not to strong intro. And they also use write to an ending and the lopt as well.
This interviewer is using delloge in his interview and when he put it down he would type the question and then put the answer after it.
This is also telling a story but he is also using delloge when he ask question and Phil answers them.

blog #2
What have you read lately (say, since last semester), that you found interesting?
I have read lot of things like sign, one of the sequels to twilight and a lot of safety equipment tags and labels. sense last year I have finished 8 books. I also read a manual for maintenance because of my internship.
Why did it catch your attention?
Why did it catch my attention you say well it is good and safe to read the label that are on different machine so you know what maintenance that it needs and or repairs. the different sentences kept me guess on what will happen next and it was so hard to put down.
