So this past year has been a series of karmic kicks in the nuts for me, health problems, money problems, miscarriage etc. I am at a community college that blows, the quality of instruction so poor that I seriously threw a fit and tried to get my money back but was told politely to fuck off. Every dick weed I know that has never worked a day in their life has had gravy jobs fucking handed to them, my 19 year old sister in law and her retarded land-whale of a husband just got a 120,000 grand home loan, I am honestly at the point of saying fuck all the changes I have made to my self over the past 5 years and going back to being a total dick to everyone that is not close friends or family.
Anyway, self pity rant over, the real issue here is that I need a goal, a new direction so to speak. I have been told countless times by professors over the years that I should be a novelist and am seriously considering trying it, anyone have any experience in this field, tips or whatnot on how to get my foot in the door? What I am looking for now is a way to stake my claim in the world without having to blow more time in school, accruing more debt in a state where post graduation opportunities are abysmal. Anyone have any ideas for good career fields that I can get my foot in without schooling, or other general ways to make decent money?
By the way I plan on posting a few of my short stories later in the week for you guys to review.
