The Write Timing

Last Tuesday in class, I remember feeling how confident I was in my newstory. However, I realized how much work I actually need to do to it. I love writing creatively, so writing in "news" style is difficult. I, personally, love to give readers a smile or a witty line rather than cold hard facts. I am coming to realize that it is not important to have frilly and witty lines in newswriting, but, instead, to make absolute sure that the reader knows the facts. I guess what i've learned most is that there is a time to write creatively and a time to write factually.
