'Becoming A Sports Journalist At 19' Norwich Talk #34

Welcome back to Norwich Talk for another podcast where we are once again joined by Connor Southwell. We chat with him about his journey to becoming a professional sports writer for EDP, Evening News & Pink Un by the age of 19. It was quite the ride for Connor as he discovered his passion for writing whilst balancing A-Levels and various other voluntary projects such as working with BBC & Norwich City Fan Social Club. He was then taken a chance on by Gary Gowers of MyFootballWriter to prove himself on a bigger platform helping him land a gig at TalkNorwichCity whilst continuing to write for MFW. A little while later this channel was born and Ben and Connor began to create NCFC content which included interviews with Stuart Webber, Iran Roberts, Matt Jarvis and many more past NCFC players. After a vacancy for Norwich City reporter came up at Archant it was then his turn to go professional as he smashed the interview and began his job with Norwich's 3-2 win over Manchester City being his debut.
