Drawer Bank — Services
What ERIC OTIENO ODHIAMBO offers
Three drawers, each holding a different kind of support for reporters working on their own.
Drawer 01
Note and Source Organisation
A practical session on keeping your working material in order while a story is still moving. We cover separating raw notes from summaries, recording where and when each item was obtained, keeping contact details apart from the notes themselves, and knowing what to keep after publication.
What's included
- One 90-minute session applied to a real project of yours
- A written structure you can adopt straight away
- A folder template
- A short note on safe backup habits
Drawer 02
Long-Form Editorial Companionship
Regular support across the life of a longer piece rather than a single review at the end. We agree checkpoints at outline, half-draft and final draft, and at each one discuss what the evidence now supports and what remains open. Intended for reporters working on a feature of 3,000 words or more over several weeks.
What's included
- Three scheduled calls of one hour, with written notes after each
- Limited email contact between checkpoints
- A running record of open questions
Drawer 03
Reader Trust and Corrections Framework
Help putting in place the practical arrangements that let readers hold your work to account. We cover writing a corrections policy in plain language, deciding how corrections appear on already published pieces, handling complaints without defensiveness, and keeping a visible record of changes.
What's included
- Two sessions of one hour over three weeks
- A drafted policy for your site
- A correction notice template
- Guidance on responding to a disputed claim calmly
