A Day in the Life of a Newspaper Science Writer

People often ask me what a typical day at my job is like. The answer is that there is no typical day, but I’ll attempt to outline the highlights of my job.

  My working day usually starts about 9:00 a.m. or 10:00 a.m. That’s absolutely perfect for me as I have never been a morning person. I work in an office building in downtown St. Louis, so the hours also help me avoid most of the morning rush hour. Most of the other reporters on staff arrive about the same time I do, although some are early birds.
