Tonight we're going for a meal in Chiquito's before seeing The Bourne Ultimatum at the Cineworld. I've got to take my notepad along as I'm reviewing it for Local Secrets - keep an eye on my Portfolio for the full review.
Oh, it's gonna be good. Been looking forward to it longer than I can think... The Times thought it rocked and he didn't just mean the camerawork. But warned that it ties your stomach in knots.

I'm in the process of securing review promises for a couple of interested magazines, which will keep the portfolio ticking over for the next few months.
Local Secrets, Cambridge's premier entertainment magazine (http://www.localsecrets.com), want me to review these places...
1. The Zebra's polish menu.
2. Gallows at The Junction on 23 September.
3. The Bourne Ultimatum movie.
There'll also be a chance to bandy about gig reviews soon for Russian Circles, High On Fire, The Dead 60s, and Mastodon.
And the big one, Big Cheese magazine (http://www.bigcheesemagazine.com), want me to review the The Black Crusade tour at Brixton Academy with Machine Head, Arch Enemy, Trivium, Dragonforce & Shadows Fall on 24 November. That's a massive gig and it looks like I may have blagged my way on the press list!
Busy, busy, busy... |

Ok folks. This week is a big week for me. I've made my first inroads to changing my life and so far it's going well. I'm looking to get into magazine journalism, something I've been meaning to do for the last 5+ years.
I've started a Blogger site for all my published work. Eventually this will feature adverts and start earning me money dependent on website traffic.
In the meantime this journal may well become a bit of a graveyard for awhile.
So, go check out my Portfolio of published articles.
It's at http://johnskibeat.blogspot.com/ if the above link doesn't get you there. It's got all sorts of options and opportunities that LiveJournal doesn't offer... so go fly my pretties, play, comment, add. |
