Jude Rogers visit

In our hour with Jude Rogers, a music journalist and writer for NME, The Guardian, Word and New Statesmen magazines I learnt many things. She talked about her career, her style of writing and also taught us valuable lessons in how we should reach our career goals and also how we should create our music magazines.

Jude Rogers had many interesting stories about her career life and how she has survived the brutal media business, she created a small magazine called "Smoke", and sent it off to many publishers, she finally got some feedback from the magazine, "Word" who recruited her as soon as they saw "Smoke". This suggests that enthusiasm and passion are the extremely important when it comes to media.

She also told us that our magazines should reflect the music that we are passionate about so are writing will be interesting and knowledgeable, I found her very inspirational and she gave me many ideas for my magazine.
