As a student of the great art of journalism you find yourself being questioned on your personal beliefs constantly. Where we stand on recent events, historical changes and the old right/left debate.
This has lead me to begin questioning my own beliefs, at the root of it all I was really inspired by one man called Daniel Defoe (some journalist from ( Read more... )

So I have a huge job writing, editing and publishing a magazine for a festival. The team is looking good, and the work around it seems to be coherent and easy to work with...It's just going to be a huge workload. On top of the rest of my degree...this is not going to be an easy year, but if I pull it off I'll have some really good stuff behind me. ( Read more... )

I'm currently sat on the train on my way to the LT field. It's quite nice getting the train on your own. It really gives you chance to think, not just think about stuff but I think the enforced seclusion gives you chance to think deeply.

Having a great time at the newspaper job. So good in fact I decided to extend my time there. I really have learned so much, hopefully by next Thursday I'll have a page three lead with a big by line saying my name.

Just finished my first week of a proper 9-5 office job working at a news paper as a journalist. This is probably an unpopular opinion but I quite enjoy the office environment, it's calming and structured and that really works for me.
