Friday...
This Friday (Nov. 17) will be my first day line producing a show on my own (the 8 and 8:30 am newscasts). Yikes! I am so not ready for this, my co-workers have even told me this. But they need me to do it. I've been working about 3 days per week for the last 4 weeks learning how to be an associate producer and how to line produce. An associate producer writes the anchor's stories and picks sound bites to compliment the story. When line producing, you have to choose all the stories for the newscast and then time the show live to the very second (28 minutes, 0 seconds). I feel OK about timing the show, I'm just not sure about setting up the stories ("stacking the show") in the time I'm given. Everything is on a deadline. So, it's basically do or die, baptism by fire.

Hi sweetie...I am sure that you will do better than you think. Let us know how it goes. Keep enjoying yourself and I will see you in December.
Shavonne, Just do what you did when you gave us your account of your 9-11 day and you will rock. Blessing, Jann
Hey, Ms. Producer, forget what those co-workers are telling you. You have a great big God, who knows more than they do. This is an opportunity to trust, step out on faith and He will see you though. Bible Study tomorrow and we will be praying for you. YOU CAN DO IT!!!(-:) Luv, G-ma
Hey, thanks for the update! I will be praying for you Friday morning (and Thursday night)! You go girl!
Love you!
Hey Shavonne,
Okay, Voice of Reason here. I totally get your nervousness and self-doubts. It's a scary thing to step out and do something you've never done before...especially when there's a lot riding on the line. In this case, proving yourself capable to your employers (and to yourself). Well, you know what? I have every confidence in your ability to get the job done, and get it done well. You pay very close attention to details, and have a turbo work ethic, so I know you will do what it takes to "get'er done." If you have a few baubles along the way, that's ok. Just do your best and that will be a success. Like your G-MA said, God is with you. Trust in Him for peace and assurance as you do your job. And know that I'll be praying for you. Love you!
