There is no reason I can’t write, produce, record, edit and submit 3 audio essays for NPR. I own equipment (somewhat expensive equipment), and I have time and I have ideas.
Even if NPR rejects them, I can use them on my web site or to document my life.
Step one: Figure out what programs/segments I should target.
Step two: Plan what I am going to do.
