I always wonder if I am blogging about
the right things. I have thought this even before taking this class
where there were guidelines. However, I then usually turn around and
remember that it is kind of hard to write about the wrong things when
you are the supreme over-seer of your blog... I have odd musings like
this often.
The degree that I wish to pursue is a
literary one, I do believe. After I graduate from Ivy tech, hopefully
next year, I would like to go to IUK and get my Bachelor's in
English. More specifically, I would like to get it in editing.
I know that pretty much everything made
up of words has an editor, newspapers, books, journals, etc, both
online and printed. I suppose that I assume that editors can work for
publishing agencies, because I think that it would be fantastic to
work for somewhere like Random House Publishing. Imagine if you were
able to read a book before it hit it really big. I know, I know,
reading through something like that for your job is not for fun. But
still. In later years you COULD have the chance to say, “Yeah.. I
talked directly to that author a while back.” I don't know.. I just
think that it would be pretty cool to do that.
I kind of choose editing because I love
words, and I am a writer. The only problem with being a writer is
that I do not write on a steady enough basis. So, while I will more
than likely always keep writing as a hobby, I need something else to
send me places in life. And thus, I chose editing.
Interesting little bits of useless
information.
