So I've been off the radar for a while now because I was entering the stressful time that is the end of the year. With deadlines looming everywhere I barely had time to sleep let alone blog. But it's all over now.
So I had two major projects on the go at once and one smaller one bubbling away in the background. The big ones were NPD, a massive group report and presentation proposing a new project to a board of investors, and a day of pitching for journals where we had to take on the role of a publisher and a society. And the one in the background was adapting a fixed layout ebook frmo the reflowable one I had already handed in for my digital publishing module.
So let's start with the biggy - NPD (New Product Development). In a group of seven working as the Art Architecture and Design division of a publishing house we had to come up with a project, write a report about it and pitch it to a board of investors.... all in 12 weeks. Each person in the group took on roles such as head of editorial or finance but with only seven of us there was a lot of doubling up. I ended up as Managing Director of the group for reasons I'm not quite sure of and with the Project Manager we were in charge of overseeing the welfare of the project and of the group. It was a lot of hard work and a lot of stress but
