About this event

Join the Trans Journalists Association and KNKX Special Projects reporter Will James on July 20th at 3:00 pm PST for a webinar discussion of how to craft a longform story from start to finish. James developed, produced and hosted Outsiders, which Time magazine called a “narrative feat” in naming it one of the best podcasts of 2020. He also co-hosted the COVID-19 podcast Transmission and served as senior producer for the award-winning podcast The Walk Home, an investigation into the killing of Manuel Ellis by Tacoma police.

During this conversation with the TJA’s Vivian McCall, James will discuss

  • How to develop a longform story or series for print or audio
  • Pitching your idea as staff reporter or freelancer
  • Staying organized and not getting stuck
  • Avoiding the pitfalls of narrative storytelling that can distort your story and subject

This conversation is only open to Trans Journalist Association members and will include audience Q&A.
