I am at a cross roads, I need to decide whether the new and revamped Sketchbook Magazine should go print or go digital. I will play the PRO and CON game.<br />
<br />
Print:<br />
<br />
Pro:<br />
1. Tangible<br />
2. Higher source of revenue for ads<br />
3. Vision was always to be in print<br />
4. Print magazine will do illustrations justice<br />
<br />
Con:<br />
1. Expensive to print, distribute, and pay<br />
2. Time consuming to get a print issue done<br />
3. First two print runs won't make any money<br />
4. Require a publishing license<br />
5. More staff required which means higher source of revenue<br />
<br />
Digital: ( But printing a Sketchbook Book once a year)<br />
<br />
Pro:<br />
1. Quicker, easier to set up<br />
2. Gain more followers, stir more attention<br />
3. Wider reach<br />
4. Test out articles, tone, mood, stories interest<br />
5. More time to allocate sponsorship and advertisers<br />
6. Time to create a good first issue<br />
7. Cheaper to launch<br />
8. Can build a stronger database<br />
9. Less staff<br />
<br />
Con:<br />
1. Have done the digital thing for a few years<br />
2. Online ads are not as reliable or high<br />
3. More likely to get a source of revenue from directory, posting jobs<br />
<br />
I have met a few publishers this week and so far the feedback I got was more digital and less print.

Wafa studied fashion in London, and she had the opportunity to work with fashion designer Liza Bruce and her husband, artist Nicholas Alvis Vega. Aft<span class="text_exposed_show">er graduation, Wafa started a blog called Fashion Ambitions, where she wrote about her experiences working in fashion. It wasn’t long before Wafa decided to take on a new challenge. She was chatting with Luma Bashmi, the Features editor of Sketchbook in London when the pair realized how much they wanted to see a new kind of magazine, one that would showcase new creative talent and feature original illustrations. Rather than waiting for that magazine to come along, they decided to launch it themselves. Thus, Sketchbook was born. Wafa became the editor-in-chief of Sketchbook, which launched in 2009 with an issue dedicated to fashion bloggers. Sketchbook is entirely original, featuring profiles of fashion and culture industry insiders and original illustrations from up-and-coming artists. The launch of Sketchbook led to other opportunities, including a Sketchbook pop-up shop and a digital app. Wafa has taken on a new challenge: she launched her own creative agency, Obai & Hill, with offices in her native Bahrain. She is currently the creative director of the agency, which offers branding, digital and social marketing, custom publishing, and other creative services. With a staff of young creatives and a portfolio of emerging clients, it seems Wafa is truly living her dream.

In more ways than the other, I remember when I first started this blog and my biggest issue was which sector of the fashion industry I wanted to work with. Now I am overwhelmed with work, feels like I have taken on more work that I can handle. And the smallest task puts me a strain on me. Recently the biggest project of my career's deadline has changed, has to be ready in 2 months and along with it came a string of press events, a press launch, and an indepth interview with mbc 1. Yeah you heard me... MBC1! It was a dream come true, very exciting! Despite for the fact that Ghaswan the TV producer gave me an earful on why I should develop my Arabic and learn to speak it fluently.<br /><br />Anyways blah blah, I can't sit still even though it's a weekend... I have work to do, gotta run to the museum, have a 'meeting' I cannot get out of, and see a friend before she bounces off to dubai!I just wanted to be a lame cliche and <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

If you have been following my blog you will know that I have 1. Never made it to a magazine cover. 2. I love getting local recognition, there is no better feeling.<br /><br />This is by far the most in depth interview I have conducted, it covered all aspects of my work and my business but it also mentioned my personal activities, especially my relationship with footie. The editor Yasmine was very well informed about my extracurricular activities and quizzed me about Arsenal and the all girls tournaments I plan during the week. I have to admit it was refreshing getting asked non-sketchbook related questions!<br /><br />I will copy paste the interview below when I get a hold of the JPGS-until then I hope you all grab a copy and leave your comments!</span><span style="font-size: 8pt;

It was<br />something I had been meaning to do<br />for a few years but kept postponing.<br />I wanted an outlet for all my crazy<br />passions – fashion, art, health, vintage<br />and a lot more, so it’s quite eclectic.<br />My brother’s film City of Life had been<br />released and I also wanted to jump on<br />the blogging scene to get his movie<br />out there.<br /><br />HOW HAS IT BEEN RECEIVED?<br />Really well! I try to get my posts up<br />as often as I can, but with having two<br />kids it can be a bit tough to keep them<br />rolling. I aim to get at least five posts<br />up a week.<br />Ladies seem to be inspired by what<br />they read and I feel the excitement in<br />their tweets when I spread the word<br />about a new designer or blogger. I was<br />on a radio show with nutritionist Alia<br />Almoayed about my health blogging.<br /><br />WHY DO YOU BLOG ABOUT<br />FASHION THAT IS WEARABLE<br />TO VEILED WOMEN?<br />Women who wear the hijab and abaya<br />love fashion just as much as anyone<br />else. The niche I was looking to focus<br />on was fashion that I would wear as<br />a mutahajiba (hijab-veil). I wanted<br />to highlight trends and show how it<br />could be modified to suit our needs as<br />modest Muslim women, or women in<br />general who prefer to dress modestly.<br />You can love fashion, be<br />fashionable, and be covered. There<br />are two types of veiled women; one<br />who wears the veil with the abaya and<br />is stylish under her abaya, which is<br />usually covered and not exposed. Other<br />types wear the veil and dress modestly<br />but like to wear clothes that express<br />their style, are trendy and speak their<br />personality, which I hope to highlight.<br /><br />HOW DO YOU DIFFERENTIATE<br />YOUR BLOG FROM THE REST?<br />I try to blog about what interests and<br />inspires me. My love for ‘true ‘ vintage<br />is obvious and I highlight fairs and<br />where to find vintage pieces globally,<br />or blog about a particular vintage<br />designer. I’m a mum so I really push<br />to get natural remedies and methods<br />out there.<br /><br />WHICH CELEBS GET YOUR VOTE<br />IN TERMS OF STYLE?<br />Nicole Richie. I love her boho-chic<br />style, and Jameela Jamil knows how to<br />work high street with designer. Blake<br />Lively almost always looks stunning,<br />she knows what her best assets are and<br />how to work it, and of course Sheikha<br />Moza always looks so sophisticated<br />and elegant.<br /><br />WHICH LOCAL BAHRAINI<br />DESIGNER DO YOU ADMIRE?<br />Hebah Al Hassan – I love her floaty,<br />boho, ethnic, and Middle Easterninspired<br />pieces that work well with<br />jeans, as a dress, or even good ol’<br />leggings.<br /><br />HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO<br />SEE BLOGGING PROGRESS<br />IN BAHRAIN?<br />It’s picking up in the Middle East and<br />gives us a voice to reach out to people<br />with similar interests. There is a<br />market out there and so many talented<br />Bahrainis who individualise their blogs<br />to cater to different tastes. <br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />WAFA ALOBAIDAT, 24, CREATOR<br />OF WWW.FASHIONAMBITIONS.<br />BLOGSPOT.COM<br /><br />WHY DID YOU START THE BLOG<br />AND HOW HAS IT BEEN RECEIVED?<br />I started it in 2007 when I was wrapping up<br />my studies at Chelsea College of Art and<br />Design as a way to document my work in<br />fashion. I was working with fashion designer<br />extraordinaire Liza Bruce and her interior<br />designer husband Nicholas Alvis Vega,<br />and meeting some of the coolest people in<br />the industry. London exposed me to a wide<br />audience and I felt the need to share what I<br />learnt through blogging.<br />The blog started as a personal journey<br />of my experiences, but I was so excited to<br />receive comments that I checked it daily and<br />it actually received one million visitors in<br />just two years! It was also recognized by the<br />Barbican Gallery after I wrote a review of the<br />Viktor & Rolf Exhibition and I was mentioned<br />alongside the Guardian and Vogue.com.<br /><br />FOR YOU, WHAT’S THE SECRET OF<br />A GOOD BLOGGER?<br />Good content, a personal approach,<br />informative and exciting writing helps and<br />you have to join the blogging community to<br />speak to other bloggers and be up-to-date.<br />Give your readers an experience to make<br />them want to return.<br /><br />WHICH DESIGNERS DO YOU ADMIRE<br />LOCALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY?<br />Locally I admire Sultan Darmaki, who is an<br />up and coming Emirati luxury shoe designer,<br />and Qasimi, who I met in London and have<br />attended some his shows.<br />Internationally, my loyalty goes to the<br />local designer talent supported by the<br />British Fashion Council. I am a huge fan<br />of Mary Katrantzou’s innovative sculptural<br />style, Emilio de la Morena’s shows, Basso<br />and Brooke, Ashish, and designers<br />represented by Blow PR, who have always<br />supported me.<br /><br />WHO ARE YOUR THREE BEST<br />DRESSED LADIES IN BAHRAIN?<br />My mother, who puts a lot of effort into<br />choosing her outfits, and always travels<br />in style. I borrow most of her jewellery,<br />handbags, and high heels. Shaikha Mai,<br />who I am working with on with the first<br />shared studio space for artists in Bahrain<br />supported by the Ministry of Culture – I am<br />so impressed by her style.<br />Luma Bashmi mixes and matches vintage<br />and high street and has a great eye for<br />fashion, photography, and art which I think<br />inspires what she wears.<br /><br />HAVE YOU HAD ANY INTEREST<br />FROM BRANDS OR THE MEDIA?<br />Glam.com are my advertisers and sponsors<br />and send me ad offers for my blog. I have<br />Wafa Alobaidat, above, began her blog<br />in 2007, and saw it receive over a million<br />hits in two years<br />reported for outlets such as High Life<br />Dubai, and write for publications like Prim<br />Magazine and Borderline in New York and<br />have met other bloggers and editors such<br />as Fashion156.com’s Guy Hipwell and street<br />style photographer Glam Canyon.<br />I was interviewed on Bahrain TV about<br />my career in fashion, and my design<br />agency Obai and Hill provides fashion PR<br />consultancy for clients in the Middle East.<br /><br />WHO WOULD YOU LIKE A BLOG<br />CONVERSATION WITH?<br />Christopher Bailey of Burberry, Margarita<br />Missoni and Miuccia Prada.<br /><br />AYSHA MATTAR, 28, CREATOR OF<br />WWW.PRETTYFASHIONFORWARD.<br />BLOGSPOT.COM<br /><br />WHEN DID YOU START YOUR<br />BLOG AND WHY?<br />After a trip back from London in early<br />2009, I had just completed a few fashionrelated<br />courses and wanted to explore<br />the industry further. To carve a career in<br />fashion within the Middle East, a friend<br />of mine suggested combining my love of<br />fashion with blogging and it has now<br />progressed into a full-time passion.<br /><br />WHAT FEEDBACK HAVE YOU HAD?<br />Fashion blogging in the Middle East<br />is still in its early stages of becoming a<br />fully functioning medium of information<br />exchange. There are regional fashion<br />bloggers that are well received and are an<br />inspiration to us all to keep the dream alive.<br />I recently started getting more attention<br />and support after a Kuwaiti newspaper<br />took my photo from my blog and printed it<br />without permission for an article on how to<br />maintain healthy hair during the month of<br />Ramadan. It led to a mini scandal!<br /><br />HOW DO YOU DIFFERENTIATE YOUR<br />BLOG FROM THE REST?<br />I guess every blog is unique because each<br />person interprets and writes about fashion<br />in their own way. My blog depicts what I like,<br />whether it’s from the runway, red carpet,<br />random people walking down the street or<br />what I’m trying to achieve as a stylist. I<br />tend to write exactly how I speak which<br />personalises my posts!<br />I try to echo in my blog that fashion is<br />for everyone, regardless of your budget or<br />body type. Global perceptions dictate what<br />we should look like but in reality everyone is<br />special and beautiful in their own way. You<br />just need to know what works for you and<br />blogging is reiterating this.<br /><br />WHICH CELEBS GET YOUR VOTE IN<br />TERMS OF STYLE?<br />It was Whitney Port, but lately I’ve been<br />hooked onto Alexa Chung’s style. I<br />appreciate her laid-back approach to<br />fashion and how she doesn’t follow trends<br />but twists and changes them to make them<br />her own. Grace Kelly inspires me too.<br /><br />WHICH LOCAL DESIGNER DO YOU<br />RATE HIGHLY?<br />I have yet to find a local designer that I’ve<br />connected with but I’m looking! I love how<br />the fashion scene is growing in the Arab<br />world, ensuring that local designers create<br />an impressive and very talented scene here.<br />Local home-grown designers to keep an<br />eye out for are: Shaikha, Any + Addi and<br />Khaleda Rajab.<br /><br />HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE<br />BLOGGING PROGRESS HERE?<br />Blogging and bloggers in Bahrain are<br />growing in number but it’s still early for any<br />real effect on the fashion scene. Fashion<br />here is still a fairly new market finding<br />its identity, and blogging an even newer<br />medium that is still breaking away from its<br />perception as a personal online journal. So<br />many incredible brands have developed a<br />huge fan following through blogs and online<br />media; hopefully retailers and readers will<br />see how blogs can help them<br /></div>Wafa Obaidathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739759612852752600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481361153639358490.post-36541229899260558972011-03-22T09:48:00.007+00:002011-03-22T10:04:15.164+00:005 fave blazer looks<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQsBwfOloxcmC8kpXBFnX6vX0A7xQK2qlHa4gttr1oFQC6suANlvxN5LiUT9qjt7bUMashUAoBSWb9JkjEFh_5dlczfvCaVpBaFgoo8M4i4f5HLZ6-8sFdFepz4Nz5HncRooRskXUkUbM/s1600/6a00e5508e95a988330148c77b97b3970c-640wi.jpg"><img style="display: block;

It's very much like my bad habit of highlighting passages of books I am reading. I think it kills the fun out of aimless online surfing and pleasure reading but I do it anyways. This week these images re-surfaced in a file I forgot I created. So instead of this awful habit going to waste I will start to share my 5 fave looks of the week, all from my archive of oh-about 13,276 images. Yup siree, I have enough material for a very long time!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYZT0KR_0aoJuFl9e4bOW_MImkV9KCWIYRpcHxjPfuy4sF9Cr59_Jsay25bbJhSrUTG5gKp8Fgty8YoSb9C7cJogzMprurqRRVSkUNQ7iF_OcF5hvqhuwWbubdY9oixTJ-ZibZs_0DB_U/s1600/010411-gwyneth-paltrow-290.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYZT0KR_0aoJuFl9e4bOW_MImkV9KCWIYRpcHxjPfuy4sF9Cr59_Jsay25bbJhSrUTG5gKp8Fgty8YoSb9C7cJogzMprurqRRVSkUNQ7iF_OcF5hvqhuwWbubdY9oixTJ-ZibZs_0DB_U/s400/010411-gwyneth-paltrow-290.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572887155920898354" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitK0WsfbwOT3H2F2o6Z9rxJTGqJHta1V_mfF5UNwJsqxNhUG6yGFa9_YDLsLbnceZ5IcmlYVbvtsFkfl8oHUvxSd6euhJ1tRE2CpeGWGeGZXUwj-1IOabipxfH-8ss71mj2TLP2EJmApQ/s1600/082910-january-jones2-400.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 276px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitK0WsfbwOT3H2F2o6Z9rxJTGqJHta1V_mfF5UNwJsqxNhUG6yGFa9_YDLsLbnceZ5IcmlYVbvtsFkfl8oHUvxSd6euhJ1tRE2CpeGWGeGZXUwj-1IOabipxfH-8ss71mj2TLP2EJmApQ/s400/082910-january-jones2-400.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572886693142299426" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxy1phouHdi1nM5-ceA5d7PA-DLX71JjVqXAv9Fqt_3l7_Q2H0hG0bG4AtmnfBDQ8OO8zd7pELIE-JF2QAI2hxA8ocUWlcb_cYeKQh1pGU2AGaBO5JPWJpK2wlO3pR7b5RMI_xJnk0e3A/s1600/whitney-port-29098.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxy1phouHdi1nM5-ceA5d7PA-DLX71JjVqXAv9Fqt_3l7_Q2H0hG0bG4AtmnfBDQ8OO8zd7pELIE-JF2QAI2hxA8ocUWlcb_cYeKQh1pGU2AGaBO5JPWJpK2wlO3pR7b5RMI_xJnk0e3A/s400/whitney-port-29098.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572886434327682610" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeT9pshpJblxsw3Kmzcw2ykdl86cZaOrbNg_7hhYE9BHxEJHplYB9eFll4-_3V5NiXiy0gv5TWf0QXrHx8RWKJM4YuPbBK1jhzIfxmhNhyphenhyphenohbuOJO5rguZWyFl99HaFKn_Tai3baJiAOQ/s1600/020911-Diane-Kruger-290.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeT9pshpJblxsw3Kmzcw2ykdl86cZaOrbNg_7hhYE9BHxEJHplYB9eFll4-_3V5NiXiy0gv5TWf0QXrHx8RWKJM4YuPbBK1jhzIfxmhNhyphenhyphenohbuOJO5rguZWyFl99HaFKn_Tai3baJiAOQ/s400/020911-Diane-Kruger-290.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572885977425077970" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCkw3E8AG3yr4NsjSQ0LbI5inIXq_34x0U741O2MerpoZ-5pDlNSLhYVPa6TYWUlVugUfShmQoUll3F5Surgu6XjY1QQmb622NHoT6CVV52bT6rMVTVLXe-h9w4uucw4HGHrekexdpLP4/s1600/nicole-richie-2-435.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCkw3E8AG3yr4NsjSQ0LbI5inIXq_34x0U741O2MerpoZ-5pDlNSLhYVPa6TYWUlVugUfShmQoUll3F5Surgu6XjY1QQmb622NHoT6CVV52bT6rMVTVLXe-h9w4uucw4HGHrekexdpLP4/s400/nicole-richie-2-435.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572885583672170498" border="0" /></a>Wafa Obaidathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739759612852752600noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481361153639358490.post-55990200604884509822011-02-12T18:51:00.009+00:002011-02-12T19:19:02.082+00:00LC and GraziaLauren Conrad is back. And not just hit reality tv show-back. But back as in, she is still trying again with another clothing line! I do admire her strong will to succeed and her hard working lifestyle. I make no secret about guilty pleasures and the Hills, fake as it is, is def one of them. What I liked most about watching the show is how much it reminded me of my early years in fashion working with Liza and Nicholas and then during fashion week with on/off, and especially my time with Boutique 1. I was such a new-be, eager to learn everything, and really putting myself out there to get the job done.<br /><br />I am also getting ready tonight for a Grazia Bahrain shoot happening tomorrow at 8.30 am at Alareen Park. It will be a piece about 3 fashion bloggers in Bahrain and I have been fashion surfing to get some ideas on what I should wear and how I should wear it. I snapped a few lovely pieces from Mimosa gallery at Al Aali Mall and will be wearing them tomorrow. Apparently I will be posing with an eagle instead of a laptop. Hmm.. will probably be tweeting about it tomorrow! Until then new LC photo shoot pics.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKdgYN8uDfnhYcFEoJaYiPTT_rp6F0ufvyPYwuOqM-EchF1AFZ4MxDsKdrZle0mPS7TflmOC55comvN3SCHKdhQsvgBh1bpnqV7eXO8dh1G5r2_s6IQyqp37i7WkSZzesAUSdi2_2Fgfo/s1600/020911-lc-eight-383.jpg"><img style="display: block;

It was the first weekly glossy magazine to hit the city, and I had to go buy it every week for the office. Ever since then I just got used to buying it every week for as long as I graduated. I always ended up getting rid of it all when I moved from one apartment to another but still Grazia will always be my first.Wafa Obaidathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739759612852752600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481361153639358490.post-23989931441170372182011-02-12T18:38:00.007+00:002011-02-12T18:50:43.390+00:00Funny FootieI have always played football in school. And then a little bit after that in uni, but I guess you can say football is evident in my life, in my relationships, and in my family. It didn't help that I attended a million and one Arsenal football matches when I was still a student. So now that I am back in my island, I find myself wonderfully suprised to play 4 times a week. I am a proud member of the Arsenal Soccer School, where we train once a week and play a game once a week. I also co-organize an all girls football match every week 'soup a stars' right now we are up to 22 members, and now am planning my first mixed football game in honour of good friend Mohammed Barca Alawadi. I was searching for images online for the group event, and I came across such funny football images, thought they might be fun to share.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZoCCjQ0Hb_ZOBpJS_vZonN2uD7eCyqbMEYm7kfXzg_wnqAcfgqvrasbM0k2A4KOtrKRnyp9WUihn3-v1wd3ygkKpacLOkntJMKIkDABVLTeAnEa5NmkCBOltTt0oHsFXleOvIQJfVYLY/s1600/18883155.jpg"><img style="display: block;

it would be a super idea to share some images from my debut at Pecha Kucha Bahrain which was held in the Shaikh Ebrahim Center.<br /><br />Ouuwwchh..almost a goal by Nasri.. jezuz..<br /><br />Anyways so Pecha Kucha was a pretty cool experience and the first time I got to share my work with an audience in my town. Here are some pretty cool pics taken by Bader Kamal, design extraordinaire who's only 20 years old and is now part of the Obai and Hill family.<br /><br />Feedback for my presentation was great seeing as I perfected my timing and rehearsed loads before I went! Obai and Hill also had the pleasure of designing the Pecha Kucha poster for the event.

We are very lucky to move into the H3Sixty space for our first office. It will be almost two months now since we moved in and it has been such a great experience so far. I love having breakfasts in the kitchen, and using all our conference spaces for our meetings. I am really looking forward to introduce the new H3sixty project which will be held in our office lounge, along with a new entrepreneurship program for budding businessmen. Watch this space folks!<br /></p> <div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"

If this doesn't make you scramble for a pen and paper I don't know what will.<br /></p><p style="text-align: center;" class="font-null">---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /></p><p class="font-null">Two thousand feet below ground the 33 trapped Chilean miners have developed a rhythm to their daily life as they wait for a rescue which may not come until Christmas. And they have allocated themselves jobs and roles. One, an electrician, has rigged up a lighting system to create a semblance of day and night. Another travels through the tunnels and caverns constantly monitoring the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Two are in charge of maintaining the fibre-optic phone lines for phone calls and daily video conferences. Two are first-aiders, administering medicines and vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus and pneumonia. The group has appointed a pastor to lead religious services, an official cameraman and a biographer to keep a daily log of their long ordeal underground.</p> <p class="font-null"> They have also designated one of their number to be the group's official poet. A miner named Victor Zamora is regularly sending rhymed compositions on single pages to the surface. His missives have become the best-read of all the communications from the subterranean prison. His work has progressed from an early cry of despair that the men would never be found by the outside world to outbursts of hope and humour which have lifted spirits below and above the ground: "Under the earth there is a ray of light, my path, and faith is the last thing that is lost... I have been born again." </p> <p class="font-null"> There is something about the human spirit which, it seems, can only find voice in poetry. Extremity underlines that. You only have to look at the Births & Deaths column in the local paper for evidence; at times of celebration and, most particularly, bereavement, people turn to poetry to express themselves. It is almost always bad poetry, it must be admitted, but it performs a function in which other language is deemed inadequate. Poetry is different and the form we turn to when intensity, exultation or grief at its most profound needs expression. It hints at the intangible, the transcendent, the inexpressible and all those deeper trawlings of the human psyche. </p> <p class="font-null"> By coincidence, last week saw the publication of a masterclass in the poet's art. Human Chain is the 12th collection of poems from Seamus Heaney. It is the first since he suffered a stroke in 2006 and it explores connections not merely between the surface and the subterranean but between individuals, across generations and between the past and present. It is full of beautifully observed, vividly recollected and exquisitely turned poems which review Heaney's familiar themes through the lens of old age and the sense of life's fragility, which the great man's brush with death has amplified. </p> <p class="font-null"> It tells us something else about how poetry works. Famous Seamus, as his compatriots affectionately dub him, has an extraordinary eye for the detail of Irish rural life. But it is not merely detail which speaks nostalgically of the past. It is detail which imbues the present with a new significance. </p> <p class="font-null"> A good poet has an attentiveness to life, and a way of observing the world, which sees what we all see but sees them differently. It is as if the poet is seeing what is familiar for the first time and discovering new riches in the language of the every day. And when a great poet such as Heaney revisits the past – recalling his mother emptying ashes from the fire, his father herding cows, the fountain pen they gave him when he went to grammar school, or a bus route from his adolescence – he doesn't just shine a light into the darkness of memory but illuminates a path for the future. And he does it all with such mellifluous melancholy mouth-music. </p> <p class="font-null"> It does not fall to many of us, thank God, to experience the kind of enforced reflection on our life that the 33 Chilean miners are now undergoing. But poetry can offer us a metaphorical equivalent of that, as one of the miners' compatriots, the fine Chilean poet Pablo Neruda suggests: </p> <p class="font-null"> <i>Leave me a place underground, a labyrinth, </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>where I can go, when I wish to turn, </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>without eyes, without touch, </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>in the void, to dumb stone, </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>or the finger of shadow.</i> </p> <p class="font-null"> Poetry can be our underground bunker, a refuge from the surface of everyday life in which the urgent crowds out the important. Poetry's ability to look at old things with fresh eyes is a key tool towards the examined life. It reconfigures the familiar – like Seamus Heaney's Conway Stewart fountain pen – and helps us look askance at the contours of our over-busy daily existence. In poetry we listen to ourselves, like a secular form of prayer. And the more we return to it the deeper we go, for we, like a good poem, do not deliver up all our secrets at a single reading. </p> <p class="font-null"> Human Chain teaches us something about facing the advent of old age. It tells stories of friendship and inheritance. There is a beautiful scene of the poet as a ghost from the future at his parents' wedding. There are evocations of the seasons, and of the poet's deepening realisation that his participation in them is limited as he recalls an elderly painter friend who </p> <p class="font-null"> <i>...could bear no longer to watch </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>The sun going down </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>And asking please to be put </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>With his back to the window. </i> </p> <p class="font-null"> There is a poem in which Heaney appears to be rifling through the suits which hung "like waterweed disturbed" in his dead father's wardrobe – "stale smoke and oxter-sweat/came at you in a stirred-up brew/when you reached in" – only for the reader to discover that the old man is alive and in need of lifting and sponging. The poems tell stories of separation and loss, like the elegy for a dead friend which begins: </p> <p class="font-null"> <i>The door was open and the house was dark </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>Wherefore I called his name, although I knew </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>The answer this time would be silence </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>That kept me standing listening while it grew </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>Backwards and down and out into the street ...</i> </p> <p class="font-null"> And then there is the opening poem "Had I not been awake" which tells the story of Heaney's stroke as if it were a wild and sudden storm rattling the roof-tiles of the house. And another in which he remembers lying immobilised in the back of an ambulance, his wife holding his hand, as they sped to hospital. They are poems about Seamus Heaney, but they are poems about us too, for the elliptical power of the writing is such that the reader has to go out to meet it half-way. When we read poems we become their part-authors too. </p> <p class="font-null"> That is what the 33 miners are doing amid the gold and copper seams of the San José mine. For them it will not be Heaney but Neruda, who in the 1940s championed the cause of striking Chilean miners against an oppressive government. They will, no doubt, see themselves in some other lines of their great national poet: </p> <p class="font-null"> <i>Arise to birth with me, my brother. </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>Give me your hand out of the depths ... </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>Bring to the cup of this new life </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>Your ancient buried sorrows. </i></p> <p class="font-null"> <i>And give me silence, give me water, hope.</i> </p>Wafa Obaidathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739759612852752600noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481361153639358490.post-56595428711988212292010-09-15T00:53:00.014+01:002010-09-15T01:17:50.888+01:00Brick_ wallingSomewhere along the lines of my dealing with advertisers and convincing my best <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">friend</span>y to start her own blog to deal with her boring non-working syndrome in Bahrain I missed my own blog. I don't know what it is. In between delegating all day long, dealing with family that are visiting in London, managing project after project, and train travel I find I have no where to note my thoughts. Twitter is not a strong enough <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">medium</span> to hold my 1 million <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">uncorresponding</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">thoughts</span>. And there is no way in hell I could even think about condensing them all to 140 <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">characters</span>. so here I am, back from a wonderful break in Leeds, <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">missing</span> my stolen Nikon D-40, missing my friends, and craving <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Arabic</span> food like a mad woman.<br /><br />Like clock work its after midnight, I am restless, I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">have</span> questions, I am packing boxes of clothes and shoes in my head and ready to move house.<br /><br />Amongst all the wonderful things that are happening in my career I made time for a late movie and ordered room service with my brother on his last night with us in Leeds. <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Shakespeare</span> in Love was playing.
