A bit of journalistic advice: Take 5 min to do a last "Proper names" check -- spellings of every person, place, song/show/film title against email, official website, etc. -- after editors are done. I just did this and found I totally mis-remembered a source's last name. 🤦‍♀️

Out grabbing lunch today and a gentleman standing behind me at the register saw my work lanyard. "Hey, they let you back into the White House!"

I'm so grateful I found a couple of Asian American veterans willing to talk with me and/or be photographed for The AP. I hope the two gentlemen gathering their oral histories continue their work or get some grant funding. #Vietnam50 apnews.com/article/asian-…

At the same time I was a student journalist at the UCLA Daily Bruin, Natalie Nakase was captain of the UCLA Women's Basketball team. Fast-forward a couple of decades, I'm doing a profile on her and she's coaching a new team where I grew up. The universe is funny. apnews.com/article/golden…

I got to chat with Daniel Dae Kim at length about his history-making The Tony Awards nom. This was also full circle cuz I met David Henry Hwang as an intern. So nice to see a work about Asians in America, not "The Orient," get acknowledged. apnews.com/article/daniel…

Here's a tip for publicists. Note any time difference. I'm still peeved someone could've replied to my email but chose to call me at 5:30am my time. I never fell back asleep.

A couple months ago, my office relocated to the Cronkite school and I am on the same floor as Eight/KAET-TV . A key difference with breakroom kitchens in public television vs elsewhere - can't find one paper plate but there are FIVE glass cake stands. 🤣🎂#publictelevision #PBS

Tomorrow, HBO releases a new show: Chespirito, based on the life of Roberto Gómez Bolaños, creator of El Chavo del 8 & El Chapulín Colorado. I am looking to talk to fans who are excited about the show. What they are interested in seeing and why? DM or email [email protected]
