So for the final lecture, those of us who came would know we
had a guest speaker, Steve Molks, who runs his own blog.
(no I’m not putting the link here because he gets enough
views anyway, while I get too few)
Anyway, he gave us some helpful tips about starting up,
being true to yourself, following your dream, all the usual junk.
Fortunately, he managed to wake me up before I fell asleep,
with some original advice, taken from his experience running a blog.
Dot Points:
·
Form your own opinions, and don’t be afraid to
state them
·
Related, be confident, about yourself, your
work, your potential and your opinions
·
You need to create a brand for yourself
o Start
developing your style now
o Work
out what/who you’re targeting
·
Start publishing now – there’s nothing more
impressive than a young go-getter with an extensive portfolio
All these points are common sense, but sometimes we need
people to point sense out to us because we can’t quite see it yet.
