[Journalists] questions

[Elizabeth Campbell]

Hello Ann,and congratulations on graduating with your degree in journalism.

I would keep up with your blog.

Also, continue to pitch your entertainment stories. Is entertainmetn your 
primary writing interest?

There are lots of sites on the web. In larger cities, there are 
entertainmetn oriented web sites.

Also, daily papers including the Fort Worth Star-Telegram where I work, have 
launched web sites designed to attract younger readers with stories about 
local clubs, restaurants, etc.

The daily papers are unfortunately laying off staff and offering buyouts, 
but if you are willing to freelance, there are opportunities.

Also,  check trade web sites such as Editor adn Publisher and and the 
Poynter Institute's site.

Let's hope this recession ends soon!

Liz
