RJA #14a: Project Progress Report

I am planning to write a newspaper article for my application project. The article will be centered on the personal interview I did with Drew Covington. Drew suffers with cerebral palsy and though he has some mild physical problems from the disease, he mainly suffers with brain function. In the article I will review what cerebral palsy is, what types of problems Drew suffers from and why stem cells treatment is an option that he and his parents have chosen to do.


So far I have outlined the basic topics I want to cover in my newspaper article. I have the draft in the form I want it in and I have written some of the text. I have also found the five sources I will be using.


I would like to get a picture of Drew, since he will be the focus of the article. I have to continue the writing of the draft and I need to do the essay for the project and learn about APA formatting style.
