Silver linings of my time in quarantine

I am a Media and Communications major with a concentration in Multimedia Publishing and a minor in French. I grew up in Baltimore, MD and when I moved to Glenside for college, I fell in love with Philadelphia and moved to the area permanently in the summer of 2020. When I was younger, I spent all my time reading and writing. I knew when picking a college major that I wanted a large component of my studies to be building upon my writing skills.

At Arcadia, I have been on staff at Loco Mag for three years, becoming an Editor in Chief for my senior year. I am also a tutor at the LRN and the LRN liaison to the Media and Communications Department. I was in London FYSAE Spring of 2018 and took a GFS class to Fiji. I am planning on pursuing a career in Public Relations while hopefully writing freelance on the side. 

I spend a lot of my free time writing creatively. In addition to a career in Public Relations, I hope to become a successful author. I love writing stories with queer representation that were hard to find when I was in high school. I have one self-published book I released in the fall of my freshman year and another nearly completed manuscript that I’m editing before I send it out to a publishing house. I also love animals and work part-time at a Petsmart. I have a few pets of my own, including two guinea pigs, a snake, and multiple fish, in addition to the two family dogs that live with my family in Baltimore. 

 

My creative project is I will be making a print magazine for Loco Mag. It was something I started last Spring, but it ended up not happening because of the pandemic and school closing. It was meant to be commemorative for the 50th edition, so I will be taking articles from every issue the magazine has published and will format them to print.

One year and four months, 216 pages, and 50 articles later, the print edition celebrating Loco Mag reaching the 50th issue milestone is finished. I worked on this through school being closed and going online and for a year this project was on the back burner. It was...

I’ve been working hard on my thesis the past couple of weeks. I am happy to say that I have formatted all articles and have finished putting together the final booklet. Turns out a 50 article magazine is long (about 210 pages). And will take a couple of days to edit....

In this post I will go into a little more detail on the process of making this very large print magazine. Since it is in celebration of Loco mag’s 50th issue, that means I have been working on formatting 50 articles, one from each issue. With most issues releasing...
