4. Worthy Of?

Tues, Nov 5:
  • After many delays and tensions within the group, we managed to publish a very rough looking first issue. Because of this, it was solely an online magazine (Issu) instead of having a printed edition to coincide with its online upload
  • It was a disaster first issue - un-subbed versions of articles were put in by mistake and the design was clunky and not thought out - due to time constraints
Thurs, Nov 7:
  • Group tensions from Tuesday spill over onto today. Morale is pretty low. Not good for a working environment
  • Official roles were either clarified/changed in a group meeting with everyone present
  • An article list was compiled with a plan to make the second issue even better and to actually get it printed!
  • Sam also designed a house style for article layout
Fri, Nov 8:
  • After the first issue, Tony gave the third years the responsibility of designing the magazine pages whilst the second years focus on their writing
  • Therefore, official roles were changed once again with Sam and I being design editors, Jake and Daniel being writers and Andy remaining as editor (vowed to be more of a presence from hereon-out but already booked ticket to Ireland for beginning of next week)
