You need a collage degree to work in a library, and this idiot went to work after high school. A stupid decision I now regret. <br /><br />Anyway, on to the dream job. In a way, I am living my dream. I've wanted to be an author ever since my late teens, and now I'm proud to say that I have two pieces published and two more under contract, one under submission, and one in rewrite mode. Sure, my dream job doesn't pay much, but I'm still vary happy with it. And hey, eventually, I will make enough money to survive on my royalties alone. I talk to several e-pubbed authors who have been publishing for a few years now, and many are now leaving those dreaded day jobs as they make enough off book sales alone.Angelina Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16953868243120764347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049806523867335071.post-87478580343176401232012-02-14T02:40:54.392-08:002012-02-14T02:40:54.392-08:00I have a temporary (one year) part-time job doing ...I have a temporary (one year) part-time job doing clerical stuff for the moneys, but I need to figure out what career I'd like, even if that's working for myself (doing what, Self?). Like you, I'd love to work in a library -- my local one knows me by sight -- but they usually want someone with experience: hello, catch 22, I can't get experience unless you hire me.<br /><br />And you know I'd totally be checking out what people are reading and trying to make friends with people with similar tastes.<br /><br />Glad the library work is going well, Jennie B.!Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17926811798176739307noreply@blogger.com
