I often tell people that college is good for life experience and meeting people, teaching you to learn/think, and exposing yourself to so much more knowledge. Major in what you love; go on for additional training or schooling beyond that for marketability. <br /><br />I love what you have to say about it. It IS organic and learning can enhance that, but not necessarily "teach" it. Very inspiring - thank you so much!

Sure, you can learn grammar and spelling and plotting and stuff, but writing itself is an organic thing. It's going to come from inside you. I would never say go to college to be a fiction writer. Go to college to get life experience and major in something that will give you money so you can afford to write until you earn enough money from your writing to quit that job. Ha. But always try to do something you love. Always.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11124010855986437191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-739533234250181729.post-62812029095703094582013-08-22T13:43:32.768-04:002013-08-22T13:43:32.768-04:00Ok, finally, it looks like I can make comments!

I always wonder if an author majored in creative writing or journalism or some such in college, or if he or she simply got into writing organically (or both). Was a college degree part of your journey in being published?
