Quite an interesting turn of events. I never expected to write full-time. Back in my radio days, writing was limited to researching all sorts of facts for music programs I’d put together. Or coming up with the month’s new set of sales flyers. Or coming up with a powerpoint presentation to win clients over. Or even this couple of times where we repackaged and repositioned the station with all manners of press releases, new collaterals and promotional copy.
Well come to think of it, it would seem that even as Sales & IMC Manager of Mellow 94.7, I’ve been doing quite an amount of writing. A large amount of writing, as a matter of fact!
I now write for an Australian-based website, www.Petshed.com. I’ve only been on the job for two weeks, and I should say that it has been fairly interesting. So yes, I have been given the mundane, uncredited task of rewriting content in the site, but beyond that, I think I have attained a kind of clarity that I’ve never had before.
I like writing. So much, in fact, that I have even gone so far as setting up multiple blogs within a span of a few weeks. Blogs are good; other than serving as a means of self-expression, they also (potentially) build your credibility, and at the very least build your portfolio.
