Hey,
I'm not sure whether I want to go into publishing or journalism yet as I haven't had any work experience. However, I would like to take English Literature (and possibly German) at university.
I was just wondering what kind of things I could do to get a feel for this sector, aside from actual work experience - I think that maybe starting a blog may be useful but I'm not sure. I'm currently doing my GCSEs and so I'm looking for something that doesn't take up too much of my time.
I would love to get some ideas and hear about any of your experiences~~
Thanks!

Hey,
One of my first careers was in publishing. What I found really helped get me an incite into the sector and a head start from others applying was work experience. I was luck enough to get lots of work experience at Bloomsbury. A lot of publishing houses offer 2 weeks+ work experience in their offices. You could also try and get some work experience in a newspaper or magazine to get a feel for journalism as well.
Here's some sector info about Publishing that might help you out:

I hope this helps!
