Aka a list I made because I can’t sleep.
Wonderful advice, Lauren - made me laugh and nod in recognition and agreement. I was a newspaper reporter and put together a similar list. I like to think you'll enjoy it - and these lists should be required reading at J schools, don't you think?

Ha! Yours is great.
Thanks, Lauren - here's a few more rules, and then I'll stop, honest:

good advice, appropriate for those doing qualitative (interview based) research in any field.
What about “Don’t take any wooden nickels?” ;-) Great, sage advice!
This is great!
Love this. Particularly the note that politicians always change their story :) Intrigued about the 'don't touch math' advice though!
Love all of these. I only wear shoes I can walk it, and always eat the free snacks. They're FREE!
I hope you sleep tonight!
Loved the fashion tips. It makes a difference. Especially “Wear shoes you can actually walk in. Everyone, not just journalists”.
A great list full of random pearls. ‘Reading is fundamental’ and ‘wear shoes you can walk in’ stood out for me. 😊🙌
