ziasudraI thought this was supposed to happen only in movies, or to really famous investigative journalists who are out in the field digging for information.
You know those stories about small-town reporters who get leads on seemingly insignificant stories, only to uncover mamoth-sized truths about their cases that eventually link them to a world of sex, drugs, money, murderand meeting their super hot on-screen partners for that extra bit of movie romance?
I was doing research on a Chinatown bus story I'm writing for a university-based magazine, 700 words max. What I'm beginning to dig up are years of rivalry that led to acts of vandalizing, physical fights, gang involvements, money trafficking, and murders.
So much for a light-hearted "this is the Chinatown bus, blah, blah, blah..." story I had planned. *redrafts story completely*
I feel like I've been initiated.
