[speaker001:] guess what? I've got great news!
[speaker002:] what is it?
[speaker001:] well, you know how I've been working at the Economist as a proof-reader, right?
[speaker002:] yes.
[speaker001:] well, the editor-in-chief heard that I had experience as an editor at another magadize and asked me if I was interested in becoming an assistant editor for him.
[speaker002:] really? That's fantastic! Will you get a chance to do any writing?
[speaker001:] she said that the columnist for the literary criticism column would be going on pregnancy leave soon and that I could be in charge of the column until she came back.
[speaker002:] wow! That's really great news. How often does the magazine come out?
[speaker001:] it's a monthly magazine, but my column will be shared with another columnist so my articles will be due fortnightly.
[speaker002:] are you looking forward to doing more editing work?
[speaker001:] yes, but I'm even more excited about getting my thoughts published again!
[speaker002:] do you have any order forms here so that I can get a subscription to the magazine?
[speaker001:] I don't have any with me, but I think I could manage to bring a free copy home for you.
[speaker002:] I'm really looking forward to reading your column.
[speaker001:] me, too. Do you want to go out to celebrate my good news?
[speaker002:] sure, where would you like to go?
[speaker001:] perhaps we could go to the library festival that's going on at the local bookshop.
