Help with Internships, etc?

[Isil Darkmoon]

I'm wondering if anyone could point me at some resources to find an summer internship related to writing/English/journalism, etc. I'm in Indiana (Purdue University) and I'd LIKE to stay in the area. I've always just worked random jobs over the summer before, but would really like to be in "my field" heading into my senior year. Any suggestions? Writing copy, magazine, newspaper, working for a publishing house... any/all sound good to me, but I have NO idea where to start.

Does your university offer career counseling in this area? You might check with your local newspapers, etc., and look in Writers Market to find out if there are any publishers in your area. You might also check here, but it costs $15 a month to join (not a bad deal, though): http://www.publisherslunch.com
