Hi, I'm in the 6th grade and i need someone to
interview for a career choice in writing. I am verryyy desperate now since it is due Thursday so I need an answer by Wednesday! I just need
to ask a few questions about being a writer and if you
can't answer, that's fine too.
1. What do you feel is most rewarding in your career?
2. Why did you choose this career?
3. What do you find lest rewarding in your career?
4. What university/college did you attend? Why?
5. What inspires you to write?
6. Do you have a good feeling after you finish a
piece? If so describe.
7. Would you recommend this career to others?
8. If you have ever wrote a book, how many drafts and
denials did you get before it got published/got so
far?
Thank you for your time and I REALLY appreciate it. I
would also appreciate the answers by Wednesday, sorry for the late request,
i just received this assignment from my
teacher.
THANK YOU!  |

And that quite a few of us are either in high school, or have just recently started attending college? Most of us on here are teens, lol.
Changing 'career' into 'hobby' on the first one...
2. Why did you choose this hobby?
I like to write, and I want to write. I'm always writing instead of doing what I should be doing, like homework. Why not do what you love?
5. What inspires you to write?
I don't know what inspires me now, but I know what inspired me to first pick up the pen. When I was ten, my family still took summer trips up to our cabin in the mountains in the middle of the woods. The closest neighbor was a good walk away. This combined with the fact that I had an over-active imagination the drove the teachers nuts and had just read the second book in the Lord of the Rings trilogy made for some pretty interesting stories. Now, I write whatever story comes to mind.
6. Do you have a good feeling after you finish a piece? If so describe.
Hahaha, *if* I finish a piece, I feel pretty awesome for finishing it, period. Especially if it's a long piece. But if it's short, and they normally are, I feel a sense of completion. Then, a few moments afterwards, I feel ready to shred it and edit it.
7. Would you recommend this career/hobby to others?
Only if they like to write. |

If you only needed the one interview, then I'm glad you got it.
If you need another, feel free to pm me. I'm not published or anything, but I've won some contests, so that might lend itself to the career aspect.
Best of luck either way!
