I would be good at researching entertainment
I have many books on the subject
I have followed entertainment for over thirty years
I have followed what Disney make since I was young
I used to watch Clapperboard with Chris Kelly
I used to read Look-in magazine and the annuals
I like animation, comedy, musicals and British films

    I don't know why but that really made me laugh :o

    Why don't you begin by getting in touch with your local newspaper or magazines? Very often they'll accept topical articles if they're good.

    You need to do a research degree in Uni which will allow you to contribute to such research and also have the initials Ph.D after your name.

    The OP may well be suitably qualified though.

    But Windy, if you're not, how about Mooby's idea of contributing articles to your local paper to start with?

    No you don't.

    For academic books you need to be a bright student who needs some money and is desperate to gain favour with a professor by doing research for them.

    By the time you have a PhD you should be writing your own books not simply research for other people.
