Day 19-My Dream Job...

Hi All


The prompt for today really got me thinking about how life changes and your goals/plans change as we mature and grow. I always thought my dream job was to be a teacher. I don't want to go into a lot of detail but after six years I'm not so sure anymore. I also love to organise events and absolutely loved to organise our wedding but have organised many things at school as well and although often stressful, I have enjoyed all of the nitty gritty that goes with it. If the work was there, I'd love to be a freelance events organiser-something that may be possible in the future? Who knows? My other love is also for craft...if I could do any kind of job within the crafting industry then that would be fab. Or working in a book shop or library....sometimes I long for a job where I can go, enjoy it and come home and enjoy my time with family...you can probably tell I've thought about this a lot recently lol!

My dream dream job however, is that of a writer. I would love to be able to write a series of novels but with a variety of genres-something that isn't often done by an author! Perhaps I'd start off with one specific focus and branch out as and when I felt the time was right. Look at me talking about this as if it is going to happen lol! As much as I'd love to have a bestseller, it is such a difficult profession and offers little security unless you're the next J.K.Rowling! But, I'd love in the future, to give it a go if my circumstances changed and I was really able to concentrate on writing. I am playing around with some ideas at the moment, and you never know, it may go somewhere, but at the moment I am just enjoying having fun writing.

Looking forward to hearing about your dream job!
Thanks for popping by.

  1. Did you know that some people who have written stories as a web series go on to be published? You could write the story we have already seen as a series of blog posts! You know you have readers, too!

  2. Yes just keep writing! You never know what can happen - there are some many examples of people who write for years before they get published. It's about find the time and making the commitment to the page. You can do it!!
