About Me

I'm 20 years old and will shortly be beginning a NCTJ fast-track magazine journalism course at City College Brighton and Hove. Eventually I would like to become a film or book critic or go into radio journalism.

'Jolly Roger Fun Day'

OK, so a week Friday I'm running a fun day that I organised through work. The idea is that under 5's can come along and do sea themed activities with the staff of the children's centre we've partnered with, and me and my best friend run a drama workshop with 5 -1o year olds. Only problem is it looks like my best friend's not going to be able to do it as it clashes with her uni timetable. Argh! The event's nearly full (47 out of 60 places are filled) and I cannot do the drama workshop by myself! I haven't brought the props yet either because I keep forgetting how near it is. At the moment I've got my fingers crossed that a friend of a friend, who is studying performing arts at my old college, will be able to help out. Yeah, let's keep them tightly crossed....

The original idea was that this would look good next year, and that the library where I work would be able to do something connected with RaW (if you want to know what it is then take a peek at my article on the 'Struggling Authors' website
). We'll be taking along some of the RaW 'Quick Reads' and joining people up as library members on the day - the thought being that people will come along and have fun, and then connect the library with that fun.

If I get someone else to help out that is, otherwise the whole thing will be a total shambles...

I still can't believe you haven't gone with your original idea to have a 'sea themed FIN day' - I would have liked to have seen that!

It was never a sea themed FIN day! That was merely a typo!
