And you said I couldn't write
I was told once I would never write professionally. My grammar was poor, I used too many commas, and I liked to write how I talk. Which would never fly in Corporate America.
To that asshole Professor, I'd like nothing more than to laugh in your face. My paycheck arrives bi-weekly due to my ability to write CONVERSATIONAL scripts and marketing material that is not only engaging, but also relatable. Damn different than the "technical writing" I was trained to do, but a helluva lot more personable. And something, that if I really think about it, I enjoy.
Thank god for marketing. And my years of user manual writing. Without one, I wouldn't have found the other.
