How do you get your first articles published? Are there any secrets out there for new players? Colleen Murrell spoke to three of her former Deakin students - Katherine Wilson (left), Nick Townsend (centre) and Liz Shingleton, who all managed to get their university assignments published. Katherine went on to win the 2006 ‘Sensis Award for Student Journalism’, judged by The Melbourne Press Club. Nick won the ‘Just Super Student Journalist of the Year Award‘, given by the Walkley Foundation. And Liz is continuing to write for ‘Equity’, the magazine that gave her that first crucial break.
