With such a wide variety of tasks that changed week-to-week, working at Centre for Stories has taught me the importance of adapting to new challenges as they come. Though keeping detailed to-do lists has kept me on track, I have learnt to not be shy of asking questions or seeking advice from my co-workers. To date, I have assisted in the release of Issue Six, Seven and Eight of Portside Review. Additionally, I am honoured to be one of the Issue Seven contributors, having put together a sound piece about the villainisation of women in ghost stories. Show less
