Week 15

Manuals
The class decided that we should all update manuals for a grade and the grade should come from the class as a whole. In order to update ours, Jack and I met Saturday and then reviewed it again on Sunday. We added what we did onto the manual and it was very easy because we just followed our list in the marketing action plan. This was really helpful to have, as well as our blogs helped us out a lot in remembering what we had done. I plan on adding more details to Galaxy quest and the oped piece into next semesters manual.

Week 14

Meeting with Shannon
I met with Shannon about my oped piece this week after updating it twice. She gave me a lot of good feedback about where I should be going and the tone of the piece. We both felt that it was a good idea to be writing personally. I tried to update the best I could giving concrete examples from my own life. 

Meeting with Jack
Jack and I met to talk about the oped piece more and what I hope to do with it after I make more adjustments. I also talked with him about how we will stay in contact over the break. We talked about the ideas he had for social media about how to keep up with posts and better ways to keep the like share calendar up to date next spring. 

Email to Dr. Berliner
I emailed Dr. Berliner for his feedback on my oped piece and he said that he liked the tone but that he thought there was a very slim chance I would get into the NYT. He suggested that I submit to technical magazines. I think he does have a point. I think I will definitely start to create a schedule for where I will be submitting, like a festival roll out schedule. I think I am also going to send it to some friends I have in publishing.
