Blog 19: Senior Project and ESLRS
1. I feel as if I have mainly excelled mostly in the Effective Communicator category in my senior project.
2. I feel like I've excelled mainly on this ESLR because I have connected with many people in order to gain a better understanding of my topic. For example, I've talked to popular zombie authors such as Steve Hockensmith, Jonathan Maberry, Max Brooks, John Joseph Adams and my mentor Matt Mogk and asked them questions regarding what it takes to write zombie fiction. As part of my 1st independent component as well, I got into contact with Steve Hockensmith and he allowed me to get an article up on the LA Times Hero Complex because of it. I have also contacted radio stations to propose an interview with the ZRS and was able to get Arrianna Nichols from 1069 The Eagle to cooperate.

Working with my mentor Matt Mogk has also allowed me to work with many other beneficial aids. If I ever need to interview someone again I could just ask him for advice and he'd gladly be willing to help in appointing me in that direction.
