Since you’re only 14, you’ll be changing your mind a lot, trust me – especially with the way both industries are looking, which I’m getting into.

You can find pretty much everything here:

Photojournalism is pretty tough to get into now – hear about the newspapers failing out?
If you’re aiming for music magazines (which you more than likely are), you’ll just have to network (as with everything else), work your ass off, and work for little to nothing.

Getting anywhere in the music industry is all about selling your soul and trying to survive, honestly.

Also, all of the work isn’t as fun and pretty and sugar-coated as it seems – it truly is hard work.
