Worthy Magazines Life Guru

I am currently in the process of working with my UOM (J.C. Samuels) to build a successful magazine. The magazine is called Worthy Magazine and so far, so good.

In this process though I am doing some mini research to find out how to be a journalist, since I have no experience in the field. I can take some great pictures, if I have my camera on me but I do not know exactly what to ask those who are around. This entry is an accumulation of information that I am stumbling across to make me a better writer in the world of journalism and interviews!

I will be using this website, Right Writing, to guide any for of writing that I do from here on out. The information on the site is overwhelming and considering that I have not gotten more than 4 hours of sleep today I am not up to reading anything that length. From what I have read though I know I will be able to gather a lot of guidance and take my skills to a whole new level.

Now the other source that I will be using is from About.com. This source gave me these great guidelines to follow

• Prepare ahead of time
• Set the tone
• Let your curiosity lead you
• Yes, you may google
• Avoid cliches
• Avoid yes-no answers
• Go to the source
• Ask the editor

These are other sources that I will be using but are just from a basic iGoogle  search.

• How Do I Ask For An Interview- and When?
• How To Conduct an Interview
• Should I Let the Magazine Interviewee See the Questions First?
• Should I Let My Subject Preview the Interview
• 33 Funny Interview Questions to Ask
• How to Decide What Questions to Ask a Celebrity During an Interview 

I will be working on all this this weekend and until I have no time at all to do it. 

If you are interested in being interviewed or have any ideas please let me know.
