Discussion about Mike L.’s Profile
First of all I just wanted to start off by saying that I really enjoyed this piece. Taking into consideration that this piece is his rough draft, I really connected with the profile. I am a frequent customer at Shakespeare’s Pub and I knew exactly what atmosphere Mike was talking about. Interviewing one of the Shakespeare’s owners is exactly the type of insight and information that I want to read about, which is why Mike’s profile was so interesting.
I really enjoyed ready about what the future plans of Shakespeare’s is looking like. When the owner was describing the new construction and the local festivities that are featured in downtown Kalamazoo, I really felt like Shakespeare’s could really start to make a name for itself outside of Kalamazoo.
The underlying story for me was that the two current owners of Shakespeare’s were once just like me. Uncertain of what the future held for them, all they really wanted was to continue the college experience and get paid at the same time. It’s really good to hear stories like this about two good friends following a crazy idea, and really enjoy achieving their dream.

I also really enjoyed Mike L.'s profile. The story has good movement. The development of the dream that became Shakespeare's is clearly told in a chronological order while allowing the reader opportunities to relate to the founders of the bar.
