Instructions: Instead of looking at newseum this weekend I want you to find a personality profile that you like on former San Francisco Chronicle columnist Mike Kepka's website mikekepka.com and answer the following questions.
Why did this personality profile catch your attention?
Evaluate the lead. Is it descriptive and does it grab the reader's attention?
What is the angle/focus of the personality profile that resonates throughout the entire story?
Are quotes used effectively and which quote is your favorite and why?
Does the story stick closely to the one-sentence format for writing in the inverted pyramid or are there longer paragraphs?
(Reminder: This story does not have to answer the five W's because it's a feature story and not hard news)
