Your future's so bright...


...you've gotta wear shades. Have you heard that song before? Perhaps our visit to  417 Magazine inspired you to pursue a creative career...maybe in writing or maybe in graphic design or marketing or something else. There are, of course, lots of  schools that offer creative writing programs and there are several different directions you might take to work as a writer.

No matter what you see yourself doing down the road, take some time to do a New Post on your own blog and respond to the following questions:
  • discuss 3 or more interesting ideas from the presentation Tuesday
  • ask 1 or more question about something discussed
  • write about a specific magazine you would like to work for, why you'd be interested or a good fit there, and what job(s) you'd like to do (you could choose 417!)
  • write about where you'd like to be in a: 1 year, b: 5 years, c: 10 years and d: 50 years (this might include careers or work, accomplishments, family and friends, homes, possessions, emotions, etc.)
  • include at least one image that shows what you see in your future
  • include the word "future" or the word "magazine" somehow in the title of your post
  • if you'd like to put a link in your post the way I have with the words in purple (maybe to the college you're interested in or a magazine you'd like to work for or something else) I can show you how--you just highlight the word you want to be linked, click on the icon with the little green circle and chainlinks on the toolbar then copy and paste the url/web address of the page you're linking to...I usually change the text color of that word, too, just to be consistent

When you've finished your own new post, read several of your classmates' and make a comment.
