Reflect Upon your experiances this week.What was most difficult? What was easiest? What knowledge have you gained about the process of pulication? What knowledge have you gained about yourself as a contributer?

The most diffiult part of this week was choosing which ideas we should write about. Everyone had really great ideas so finding something to write about and then condensing it down or trying to see which topics would be do-able. Th easiest part was setting up the layout of the page. We were easily able to place our topics in a proper catagory where it would be best fitted. Some knowledge i have gained as a publisher is that deciding what goes in a paper isn't always as easy as it seems. Some articles seemed fun but for whatever reason we weren't able to follow through with them. I also learned that not every idea that you have will necessarily make it into the paper because there's simply not enough room. Some things i learned about myself as a contributer is to be open to new ideas and opinions. Not everyone is going to love your ideas, and you may end up loving someone else's idea for an article. Another thing i learned is not to take it personally when your idea does not make it into the online magazine. It's not that your idea is bad, there just may be other complications that make it difficult to come through with your piece,
