[quote=@Beelz129] well what kind of job that could include animals or wirting that doesn't need a digree ? [/quote] Whoop, I edited in earlier. Volunteer at an animal shelter. It's low pressure and might be a good way to ease you into these sorts of real world responsibilities. Writing isn't really a career goal such much as a lottery ticket. Journalism is getting streamlined as newspapers fall to aggregators and low-effort articles increasingly become written by bots. You can get a job there, but you can't really bet on a career. Fiction writing is totally a lottery ticket, in that most people who try to get published only ever make a tiny bit of money, but there is also a small chance you might win the pot and become very successful. Just, you know, you cannot hope to bet on that small chance. Animals are a different matter. You can make a career out of 'em, albeit the good jobs are behind a paywall. Animal shelter or a pet store seems like a good starting place. And for long term goals, here you go.
