Josey-Internship Blog (1)

I went to Writespace for the first time, very nervous because I was expecting to have an interview. Although I did have a short interview, it was not nearly as nerve-racking as I expected it to be. After that, I went straight to work doing whatever they needed me to do. This particular time I was typing up the schedule for the upcoming months, and also typing up stories about the Ally Theatre from Hurricane Harvey. Writespace seems like they do a lot of great work, especially with their workshops teaching classes from anything about technique to how to finish a story or a book. Just from the little bit of work I did there, I saw a lot into how much effort goes into putting on the workshops, getting sponsorships, and working with different partners. I saw all the work that went into organizing everything. I got to meet people who worked at Writespace even though it was a pretty small staff, but it seems like they have volunteers who are very helpful to their organization. I was not really sure what to expect for what I would be doing at Writespace, but I enjoyed doing the work and thought it was interesting to learn about all the little things that go into getting a business up and running.
