The
greatest thing about Second Life is that you can be who you want to be. You can be over 7 foot tall with abs
you could stop a train with, or a sex siren with massive.....potential,
regardless of who you are or what you look like in the real world.
You can live your dream, usually instantly,
and without qualifications or long boring interviews. My personal dream is to be a radio DJ; the
closest I've got to that is DJ-ing in a club a few days a week. But I've always secretly wanted to be a
journalist. So you can imagine my
delight when I found out about the SL Enquirer.
Writing
for a virtual newspaper might sound a bit silly to some people, and the more
pedantic among you will say you're not actually writing for a newspaper,
merely a blog with idea's above it station.
But, as most of the people here in Second Life know already, none of
this is real. The only thing that's real
about Mackenzie Abbot, or you, gentle reader, is the person behind the
avatar. We all know that the reality is
far from what our avatars lead people onto be.
I'm 7 foot tall, have blonde hair and a washboard stomach to die for. In reality I'm 5 foot 10 inches tall with
wild brown hair and a belly that goes
around corners before I do. Ladies...?
So
if you yearn to write for a virtual living, how do you go about it?
