Towards Publication Entry 7
So, I havn't updated in a while. Why? Because the lectures have all seemed entirely pointless. I have nothing against the people, they themselves are fin, and probably rather interesting to alot of people. However, I do not want to do journalism. I don't mind writing reviews, especially for Otaku News, but other than that I'm not interested. After Uni I plan to get a decent enough job to pay bills and give me a little extra cash so I can buy the things I love, and I will write my stories and scripts in my spare time and work toward getting those published.
Toward publication should be about ALL forms of publication, not just journalism. I feel a little let down. We have not been told ANYTHING about getting scripts published. Why?
We learn how to respond to editorial comments this week T_T
Week 5
My 'ladder' consists of:-
Graduate Uni
Get a decent job (I don't particularly mind where, but I would want to work with people, albiet in an office or in a shop, just not something like factory work!)
Write in spare time
Publish something (script or story)
Get kittens
Week 6
I looked up some competitions, but upon realising that most require me to pay to enter, I decided to skip out on those for now. I will enter some on the next trip round, and keep checking in to see what's happening. Some are so specific about storys and some are very vauge, where are the inbetweenies?
Week 7
We were making up our own newspaper this week, I wrote a review of Never Mind the Buzzcocks. I suppose I was supposed to review the single episode, but it evolved into a review of the show itself. Oh well, it seemed more interesting to me anyway.
