New Orleans + journalism + audio counsel from me

Last chance to sign up cheap for this year's Excellence in Journalism 2016 (to its friends, #EIJ16) conference in New Orleans Sept. 17-20.

If you don't want to pay much steeper admission prices at the door, pre-conference registration ends Monday, Aug. 29.

Beyond the chance to meet and learn from accomplished journalists like Charlie Rose and inspirational "Spotlight" editor Marty Baron, #EIJ16 attendees will get a dose of my Murrow Award-winning and patented thoughts on radio and podcasting in a session called "Audio: It Doesn't Have To Be Hard."

Also, I'll be coordinating a team of seasoned pros offering resume and portfolio feedback to young (and/or old and aspiring) journalists. (Students get an additional discount.)

Join 'em all. Come on down.
