Hey! I found you in the comments of another Substack, saying you wanted to quit writing, so I wanted to check it out. You’re a wonderful writer! It feels like you have lots to say. Please don’t stop, I say! You seem really passionate, and the lit world needs people like you. Cheers and happy holidays, fellow writer!

Thanks Mr. Şişman I appreciate the kind words. What can you tell me about journalism? How/where do you suggest I go to get instructions on how to do it?

Huh, well that’s a hard question for me. I’m not a trained journalist, I’m a lawyer and fiction writer, but from browsing on the net it seems like the usual first step would be a degree in Media or English/Public Relations, followed/substituted by building a good resume, writing a blog and pursuing freelance work. As for how to do it, I’d start with books that are readily available in shops, like: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0679731830?ref_=as_li_ss_tl&language=en_US&asc_campaign=commerce-pra&asc_source=browser&linkCode=gs2&linkId=62941312579c58b135ff8d22d6a2caa1&tag=biip_uk_redirect-21 or https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0804136785?ref_=as_li_ss_tl&language=en_US&asc_campaign=commerce-pra&asc_source=browser&linkCode=gs2&linkId=526c1043e75c63229a406af47d98f204&tag=biip_uk_redirect-21. Hope it helps, it’s not my area of expertise 😬
