At a time of aching uncertainty in media, it pays to look at those pushing the boundaries of what defines a “journalist.” These “new, newer, newest journalists,” if you will, are themselves the product of rapid advancements in digital technology (including the rise of artificial intelligence), pivots in business models that have resulted in mass layoffs, and major societal changes — all of which have radically reshaped the media landscape. As the needs of the industry and audiences evolve, new and innovative roles such as engagement editors, social media reporters, and data-visualization experts have become ingrained in today’s newsrooms In this spirit, the American Journalism Online master’s program at NYU (AJO) presents “Journalism Crossroads,” a collection of digital profiles showcasing revolutionary new careers, pros who are redefining traditional roles, and the remembered experiences of veterans to provide us context from the past. https://lnkd.in/esVza6pi … https://lnkd.in/esVza6pi

AustLit was utterly delighted that we got a shout-out in the Federal Parliament yesterday, when Graham Perrett, MP, Federal Member for Moreton in Queensland, gave a speech about the next phase of the Labor's implementation of Revive, Australia's exciting new National Cultural Policy. While talking about First Nations Arts and Writing Australia, new bodies to be established under Creative Australia, he had this to say about AustLit (it probably helps that he is the only Federal MP with an AustLit record for fiction 😀): "AustLit is a fully digitised, not-for-profit collaboration amongst researchers and librarians. It's housed at the University of Queensland, in the electorate of Ryan, just over the river from my electorate. It began in the 1970s as a card catalogue and was officially launched as a telnet service by former prime minister Gough Whitlam in 1988, back when this building was opened. In 2024 it is rightly recognised as a central resource in Australia's national digital creative, literary and research infrastructure. We can all be proud of AustLit. No other country has attempted to compile a comprehensive national record of every work of creative writing and its associated criticism and reviews. This remarkable living database adds to its one million-plus entries daily. It also covers film and television, popular theatre history and awards and festivals—all significant aspects of Australia's cultural history. It is a national treasure." This is all great news for Australian storytelling!! As Graham Perrett said: "The establishment of Writing Australia will bolster the next generation of well-supported writers, illustrators, publishers and First Nations storytellers. Their records will find a home in AustLit. These, in turn, will nurture knowledgeable audiences, as well as foster creative and research projects both in Australia and internationally. Perhaps most importantly it will enable AustLit to build on its long history of creating new ways of understanding who we are and how this understanding has changed over time. As more diverse voices tell their stories, this understanding will continue to evolve and flourish."

A few days ago, over $3000 landed in my domiciliary account It was money I earned doing the most hilarious thing anyone could do for money… ..summarizing articles. Business and startup articles that I would read for free, I got paid to read and summarize Trust me, I am just as surprised as you are, especially given the year I had in 2023 (I saw terrible things 💀) But I entered 2024 determined not to have a repeat of 2023 and so I shifted my focus to the one thing I have always fallen back on: WRITING At several different points in my life, my writing and creativity have swooped in to save the day: - In 2019, I wrote a few episodes on Iroko TV series ‘Man Pikin’ when I was going through a major transitioning phase - That same year, I ghostwrote two 20,000-word children’s books inspired by African heroines, Yaa Asantewaa and Nana Asma’u - 2020 came with a significant opportunity that undoubtedly changed the trajectory of my life and my perception of what is possible financially (story for another day) There are many ways to earn a living from writing, and though I don’t consider myself a full-time writer, I have had my fair share of earnings. I don’t believe in a linear career but I believe in acquiring and refining skills that make you “un-fuck-with-able.” Skills that give you the confidence to walk away when necessary and to chart your own course if you need to That’s why I wrote ‘WRITE BETTER SENTENCES’ because I want you to have the kind of freedom I have and the kind of confidence in my abilities that makes me attempt big things even when the world does not see it for me. Writing well is more than just scrambling for gigs on social media, there are many more higher quality earning opportunities that can only be reached by writing better sentences and finding a voice that makes you stand out. I can help you. The first step is joining the waitlist to buy my book by visiting the official WRITE BETTER SENTENCES website: https://lnkd.in/dTcMq4de, more will come from there (trust me) If you’re a young Nigerian woman, you can apply for a free copy: https://lnkd.in/dDwg4F7w Look, I want you to succeed as much as I want to succeed. Because I gain nothing from other people losing but everything from knowing that everyone else is doing well (so I can enjoy my life in peace ✌🏾 😅) 2024 is my year and it can be your year too 🫶🏽
