Hi bSmart women who are writers of blog posts, novels, magazines, and all types of creative content!
Stephanie Harris is our Smart Woman College student feature this month and she's here to answer your questions about transitioning from student to professional writer!
Stephanie is a senior at the University of Michigan with a focus in Communication Studies and English Literature. She's passionate about making a positive impact through storytelling, content creation, and integrated marketing communications. With internship experience at both local and national publications, she brings a nuanced perspective to the fields of journalism and marketing, one that incorporates both an extensive knowledge of media studies and a strong command of the written word. As a Summer 2018 ASME (American Society of Magazine Editors) intern at Time Inc.'s Real Simple magazine, Stephanie is happy to offer advice about interning in New York and navigating the magazine journalism world, as well as using editorial experience to transition to a business role.
I'll kick things off with a few questions for Stephanie:
1) What is your perspective on the future of print vs. digital editorial?
2) How can college women use their love of writing to create a career?
3) How can bSmart women become better writers / network with writers / publishers / agents?
4) How will you use your talent for writing to serve the world?
All bSmart women are welcome to ask Stephanie their questions! In particular, I'm tagging:
