Sara Moltzan
Feature Section Co-editor
Writing articles and reviews is really fun. One of the best things about the Iniwa is having your work published for Great Falls High and many other schools to see. Becoming the Feature section Co-editor was a little distressing because the other staff members had more design and writing experience. Kristen Hanning, Feature Section Co-editor, thankfully is helpful in most situations that arise. The longer you are in journalism the more benefits arise. It doesn’t take long to become a better writer, designer and to learn to communicate ideas much more clearly.
