I will send something soon. I have a few ideas but I just need to focus on one thing at a time. My problem is I get easily distracted and never end up seeing things through. Which is why I'm so grateful for all the writers support on my blog. I wouldn't still be here otherwise.

I like writing and reading about fact but I'm not that clued up on media law, politics, local government etc etc. I studied with the nctj and all that bored me so that also made me realise that it wasnt for me. I would love to get into magazine journalism. I went on a great freelance course with Pulford Media which taught me a lot but I've never had the confidence to send anything. Competitions seem easier for some reason.Lily Sheehanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10653762974885767334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-301379981318126431.post-68716572206717077582008-04-30T08:06:00.000-07:002008-04-30T08:06:00.000-07:00It's funny how a question like that can bring ...It's funny how a question like that can bring you up short. I enjoy writing features as well as fiction, though they're different disciplines, but news reporting never really appealed to me. Maybe you could do a bit of both?Karenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05986874444030474719noreply@blogger.com
