That's what I've been telling more experienced journalists at the P-I. Here are a couple of other points of advice: <b>You know more than you think:</b> This goes along with your advice to learn how to take pictures. You're not just a reporter. You're a writer, editor, reporter, photographer and, I hope, you know some design and coding and how to shoot and edit a rudimentary video. And you might want to learn how to run Excel in case you have to do some number crunching. Sell your ability to do more than just one thing. Be willing to learn new things. <b>Learn what you're writing about:</b> When I was in college during the last ice age, one of my teachers said that she thought there were many people who knew how to write (that might be debatable now), but few who knew what they were writing about. Learn the areas you're writing about. Be the expert. One of the selling points for online news sources is covering things that no one else is covering. Find that niche and exploit the hell out of it.
