A little bit of trivia for AMO’s readers: it all began as a project for my BA Degree in Media and Film, specialising in Print Journalism and Advanced Screenwriting. That’s right, Alternative Magazine began as an actual physical, printed magazine. Previously only seen by friends and family (and the moderators, who gave it a splendid mark I might add!), you too can now finally see how it all started…

Here at Alternative Magazine Online we love computer games with a passion. Yet I recently realised that this was portrayed to our readers from a thoroughly male perspective. I decided an alternative viewpoint, from a female gamer no less, would be very appropriate. That is when I found GirlGamer.com and their ‘Director Of Engagement’ Emily Zimmer agreed to chat with AMO about all things girl gaming. Enjoy!

Ever since a recent trip to Edinburgh, a city steeped in rich paranormal legend, I have had a newfound interest in ghost stories. I had also heard that The Woman In Black was one of the best (and scariest) ghost stories to be performed live on stage, so I was pretty excited to be heading to the theatre to see it on a cold Friday evening, the night after my birthday no less.

Alternative Magazine Online recently had the unique opportunity to speak to a lady who may just have the coolest job in the entire world: right now, she is Sylvester Stallone’s unit publicist! Not only that, but she has also worked with Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger as well. Even cooler, the entire gang (plus some fresh additions) are back together for new old-school action movie The Expendables, written and directed by Sly himself, for a release later this year.
Known only as Ethelmae (or Marialascala on Twitter), she has recently found many fans of her own via her fantastic blog. This wasn’t enough for AMO though. We wanted to know so much more about Ethelmae and The Expendables… so we asked her directly!
