    If you could have a job as a witer tomorrow... would you do it? And if so, what would it be?

    For me, to be a novelist or humourist would be a dream come true. To have a job with no obvious locational factors, just a need to push my imagination to its limit and hopefully affect the hearts and minds of readers and make a decent income at the same time ... wonderful. Is that your dream too?

    Tomorrow, yeah I'd do it...I'd be a magazine writer probably writing about video games and techie stuff, rating and reviewing games and well...techie stuff could I do it...probably not I don't think I have the vocabulary or the imagination to capture a reader and keep them compelled into finishing the articles I'd be writing but, it would make a great day job!

    I'd like to be a columnist, on day to day living with humor thrown in.  Life is funny, why not expound on it!

    I'd be a very polite witer. Everyone in the restaurant would get served quickly and with the correct food

    Absolutely YES!  I've been writing since the late 60's (and now you know I'm long in the tooth), and no matter if I get something published or not (and I have been), I still don't feel like I'm a writer!  I can't explain why.  Maybe it's because writing has always been so easy for me and right now it's all short, children's stories and articles for newspapers...not that it's all been "good" writing...but it's been easy.  I've always had ideas, thoughts that needed to be put down on paper, and now, into the computer.  Whenever an acceptance letter comes with a check, I'm more excited about the acceptance than the money I've earned.  I just can't seem to grasp that my writing is good enough for someone to actually PAY for it!  So I guess I'm always striving to "become" a writer.  I don't feel I'm there yet. I'd like to finish my book. I'd like to be known as a novelist.  Then I'd be a writer. When I arrive, trust me, everyone will know it smile And that folks, is my writing for today LOL

    I love to convey messages to the public with the examples in our daily lives...and getting a positive message across would be just great on a daily basis.
    So, may be work for a newspaper which gets published daily where I get to convey different messages via a column...would be just the DREAM job smile

    I am a freelance writer, and new to the business. I love what I do, which makes it possible to stick with it. The pay is low right now, the hours are long, so if I didn't have the passion for it I wouldn't be able to stick with it.

    I find that most of the work I do that generates income is not really stuff I'm interested in. Hubpages is a nice break for me. If I someday became a novelist, I'd love to write in the genre of magical realism.
