Also, I second the travelling request. For me, I vacationed WHILE I was in school, taking periodic time-outs to recoup from the scary fact that I was SOMEDAY going to graduate. Took me five years, and if I could go back in time, I would've stretched it to 7+....

PS, to travel you needn't have money. Just do what I did and whore yourself out when your funds run low. It's a bit ashaming, but giving yourself up for money is SURE better then working at a job. I'm thinking of going back to it!

I too am an English major with an emphasis in Creative Writing.

I live in a box city between a Spartan Food Center and an abandoned YWCA with a multitude of other homeless. On occasion I ask passersby if they have any chapstick, because I'm so damned hungry. I have a couple of manuscripts I'm eager to write down, but I have yet to be able to afford a ream of paper.

There is not much money in this discipline, I'm afraid. I hope you are more successful than myself.

That depends...as long as you don't get a student doing it for their first time, I've seen their cuts and colors turn out decent, both on me and others. Just ask for the student who's been there the longest and is closest to graduating.

Of course, if that student has a one month tenure, then RUN. Run like the wind.

if you went to school many years ago, they might not have had this at the time you went through.

I think we could make a tv show and broadcast it online or something. It wouldn't really be about anything, because shows don't have to have plots. Maybe it'd be a different sort of show every time. Sometimes it'd be a cooking show, sometimes it'd be a gameshow, like doubledare. What was that show where the kids had to crawl through different rooms in this house looking thing to find a key? I'd like to do that show. It was fun.

dont listen to the morons here who tell you your degree means youll never get to use it. for the most part, you can be pretty sure that of the few who actually undertook tertiary education, most of them did economics and are now accountants who hate their groundhog-day lives. (cue everyone shouting me down about their rock-star - james bond lives and how awesome everything is in their cubicle and how much cubicle pussy they get down at the same bar they go to every damn day of the week.)

a degree in english with an 'emphasis on creative writing' can be used, and many people all around the world get to use them in a relevant field. though, sometimes you admittedly have to get a little lucky. short of that - mccallum is right, keep writing; who knows what you might come up with tomorrow.

the best plan is pretty much to do what makes you happiest.

I graduated in the same exact boat as you one year ago. I was English lit. with a concentration in linguistics. If I may,
1)Careerbuilder, Monster, etc. are wastes of time. Your most valuable resource is your school's career department and any website they have to hook you up with positions. (Mine was CareerLink, you could submit your resumes to different places with the click of a button.) Be patient.
2)While investigating said opportunities, temp jobs are your FRIENDS. I think Adecco is nation-wide agency and that set me up with a position in the finance field. Exciting? No, but it kept the wolf away from the door until...
3)Some jobs have no specific major requirements, merely a degree requirement. I'm working at an ivy league school doing ethics in medical research and I love my job. I write reports (English) and apply the Federal Law (Criminology) to science/research experiments (Biology, Sociology, Epidemiology). Plus working at a school also gives you great benefits and generally a much cheaper Grad degree program. I'm doing government and should be done by next year.
You may be living off ramen and wearing socks with holes in them for a while, but be patient. When you become financially independent its one of the best feelings in the world. Good luck, ghola!

Move to Madison, Wisconsin. It's full of students who need apartments and landlords who need property managers, and the ultra-high density of coffee shops and relaxed atmosphere makes it the perfect place to sit around and almost but not quite finish your novel. Plus with global warming the winters are even tolerable now, and Chicago and Minneapolis are both within easy striking distance if you need to shop or otherwise feel urbanized.

OMG I have a BA in Linguistics too.

You should move to Atlanta and get a job with a property management company. There are lots. And you can write for Creative Loafing or something in your spare time.

So, to earn a BA in linguistics from UGA you have to do what? Win a 4th grade spelling bee?

My advice is to write for a while in some local magazines that'll never see outside the city, as to make you look in touch with a younger audience, then for your local college, as to make you seem witty and intelligent, advertise everywhere as often as possible, so people are already pre-disposed to liking you.

Never do anything too blog related, as you instantly lose all credibility.

Get the best publicist you possibly can. If possible, get more than one.

Write about non hotly debated topics, which aren't issues concerning anyone. Or write what you usually write, as I usually like that.

In conclusion: Gholatime!

I took a job as a secretary and then I tutored spoiled little rich kids who had the reading comprehension of a paperclip wrapped in twine.

I wanted to blow my brains out every single day. With my current job, I only want to do that about 3 times a week so I guess that's a step up.

My advice is to try to find a job in education. The pay is pretty good and the benefits are usually awesome (think just about every single holiday off and then some). I live in the northeast so I get paid on snow days too. It makes the bullshit kind of worth it. I will be starting back for my MFA in creative writing in June, hoping to start teaching somewhere afterwards.

That's actually pretty good advice. You can also use one of the sites like careerbuilder or monster to apply at every newspaper/magazine/publishing house/etc in your area, or in areas to which you would be willing to move. Keywords to search under would include, as mentioned, "proofreader," "technical writer," as well as "editor," "editorial assistant," "copy editor." Things along those lines. You would be surprised how many employers are starving for people with above-average writing and reading comprehension skills.

My advice is to stay away from contractual gigs and head hunters and go with a permanent, full-time in-house job.

Move to a large city with a well-established immigrant population that has a reasonable percentage legitimately employed above the minimum-wage level. These people tend to live in the older homes near the city/near-suburb border, and conveniently enough this is also where the office and industrial parks grow. You can approach the businesses that employ these immigrants, whick likely have offices in the area, with your offer of ESL class instruction to their employees before and/or after work. The participating companies could pony up half the cost of the course, the employees the other half, and maybe one of the the businesses could provide a conference room for the class in exchange for a fee discount. A two-week, 10-day course might be $100 per student plus the cost of materials, you could put 20 in a class, run two or three classes at once.

That's a significant benefit to the employees and employers, plus about $150,000/year for you (assuming a 2 week vacation when you're not teaching).

Might work. Maybe not though. It's an idea.

Truth.

I'd suggest getting your Masters. At least then you have the potential to teach some sort of creative writing class. It will also get you more respect in the writing world unless you come up with the next Top Seller before you graduate.

As for a job right away... do something easy like work at a coffee shop or become a mime or maybe do some pornos or whatever the fuck you feel like doing.

My degree was lots of fun to obtain. I'm now working in inside sales for an interior/exterior design company. So yeah... not using it at all. But it's better to have a degree than not to have one in most employers' eyes, and a good liberal arts background can be applied anywhere. Good luck.

It's just that I'd love to read your take on 'developing succinct, compelling copy' about houses. And also, your 'knowledge of blogging' would be a plus!

Cats love to travel - or they can become an inexpensive source of funds in some SE Asian countries...

I would recommend finding out why you have a big pink face and a tiny pale body! It freaks me out.
Good luck with the job hunting.

I assume it's the lighting. My face is also pale like my body.

OMG I have a BA in Linguistics too.

You should move to Atlanta and get a job with a property management company. There are lots. And you can write for Creative Loafing or something in your spare time.

You could do stuff like this at least part time.

Or look for a job that sounds like you can fake your way through it, until you eventually get the hang of it, and live out the rest of your days with an unsatisfying job that you'll grow to hate.

You can either write books, and hope to get the same publicist that J.K Rowling got

Create your own website using stick figure comics or something equally easy in relation to your artistic abilities and sell shirts and beg your readers for money

Or look for a job that sounds like you can fake your way through it, until you eventually get the hang of it, and live out the rest of your days with an unsatisfying job that you'll grow to hate.

Nobody cares about what specific degree you have, just that you've furthered your education, obtaining cartification that you aren't a total tard.

You're looking a bit ruddier than usual, the wind must be biting most savagly.

With your qualifications I would say you're well qualified to become a webcomic artist.

1. I graduate this summer, with a BA in Writing and Linguistics (Emphasis in Creative Writing)
2. I need a job.

=====================================

Those two combine to form

3. I will never have a job that uses my degree.
