The Spot

I've been published! I’m including a link to one of our campus newspapers in my sidepanel over here, to the left. It’s the best paper, because I’m in it.
As Dave [aka the lush(ous) wonder] can testify, I wrote this article in 56 minutes. I perfomed second revisions in 23 minutes. The daily called me 3 times to get it all right, twice after I’d fallen asleep. I like being a writer: I got more attention and phone calls last night than I usually get in a week. It’s great!
At Sydney Academy I once asked our excentric art teacher for career advice. I didn’t [and still don’t] have a calling, and I honestly didn’t know what to do with myself. He suggested journalism. I think I’ll make journalism my ongoing career affair. Law will be the sugardaddy job.

PS: To answer my own trivia question from yesterday, Tom Wolfe is the author of "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test". He alludes to his work in an article for Harper's [pg 279, no 1674. November 1989].
