Current mood: determined
plans
I'm moving to Maryland. Probably not for another 2 years, or maybe for next summer, but I'm determined to make it there. I've finally decided what I want to do with my life, and the best place for me to reach my goal is in a town called Timonium. That's where the main offices for Diamond Comic Distributors is located. They are the largest comic distribution house in the US. That means most of the comics that get published flow through Diamond at some point.
See, I've always wanted to work in the comic book industry, and well, since I lack creative skills, I've gone the business route, concentrating in marketing, promotions, and sales. This is my second summer as a sales assistant at Wizard Entertainment; which is an incredibly convienent local business that also happens to put out some of the best selling trade publications for our industry. But...I don't want to work here for the rest of my life. Before I thought maybe I should try my luck at DC or Marvel, but I think Diamond would be best fitting for me. Why work for one company and get to read their comics early, when I could work at Diamond and read EVERYONES comics early. And if I worked for diamond, i would be working on my -ultimate- goal, which is basically getting more people to read comic books.
