  1. I have already made my phone call and I've recorded it in my computer. By the way, I'm only working on Rick Spurlock, I asked him about Vikki and he said that she will be doing the presentation with him, but that she's not that close to him as to make a interview about the two of them (it would be like talking about two different experiences and interest blah, blah, blah) And I haven't been able to create my noodletools acount because I have some problems with the sign in process,

  2. and the description about my speaker resulted totally wrong, so as an advice, ask your speaker personally what they do before any conclusions.

  3. A suggestion is to research the area where your person works (if you haven't already)to get a better understanding of why it is how it is today. And I don't know if he's associated with any organizations, but if he is then be sure to research those, too.

  5. I have a 350 words draft, I think I could get to 450-500 words without calling my speaker.

  6. I've also emailed the NGO my speaker works 'close' with asking about some feedback on him to include on my essay. I'm waiting for an answer. my essay is now 470 words long by the way.
