I'm officially a 'student journalist'! I wrote an article about being a front of house usher, and I bit back my fear and sent it to one of the main student papers at my university. The paper (which I won't name) rejected it, saying that it had 'nothing to do with theatre'.... right.
Initially, I was crushed but I didn't give up! I sent it to another paper, it was accepted and my 'quasi-conversational tone and David Michell-esque rant' were praised. Here it is- http://www.cherwell.org/culture/stage/2014/09/28/the-men-in-black-life-as-an-usher
The moral of the story is...rejection will come but never give up!
