I'm with her: I think being a good writer, is much much more important than to be a good journalist. You want to capture the viewers attention with your story and win them over as a fan, that's the main goal. People tend to appreciate a more entertaining writing style these days vs. neutral which is old-school game journalism. Learning to write is also more difficult, in my experience. The journalism part is just hustle - it's a lot of research, to give an informed opinion but writing is an art form :O)
Was a pleasure to chat with my good friend, and a much better journalist than I, Mel!

Good interview.
