I've been rather silent on the blogging front for a while, since I've been busy with coursework. Today I handed in my work for the Journalism Writing module: some news stories, that profile about classmate Aaron I mentioned before and a feature. The feature had to show off the diversity of Bristol culture so I decided to speak to some comic artists about the comic/zine community in Bristol. Many thanks to Simon Moreton and Paula Knight for speaking to me, it was a really fun piece to write!
A couple of weeks ago I got my camera back from being repaired at Black on White and made good use of it by covering a rally held by the University of Bristol Students' Union (UBU) to challenge misconceptions about rape.

I took more photos at the event, as well as attending a press launch for Bristol City Council's campaign to raise awareness of the fact that victims are not to blame. I'll be putting the audio and photos I got from the day into a package for radio/online as part of an assignment, so watch this space!
