I wanted to ask this question because my college and others around my area do not have a Technical Writing degree.

Does it make better writers or crush inspiration through formulaic technique? BQ: Do you believe in natural writing talent? BQ2: Are you excited about the Royal Wedding tomorrow? Thank you! :')

I am good with grammar, spelling, and writing in general. Mostly fictitious writing, however I have heard a Creative Writing degree is not so much in demand currently. I want to go to college, but I don't know what for just yet. I want a writing degree, such as journalism or creative writing, but what is in demand, and what field will score me a decent paying career?

I currently have a B.S. in Radiologic Technology, I am interested in a career in Technical Writing, but pretty much need to do it on line. Any reccomendations??

around wisconsin would also work.

Well, my whole life I've noticed that I have a clear talent in Creative writing. Which degree would be the best to enhance my creative writing skills, while still giving a generous amount of job opportunities?

I want to know if a college gives degrees in Criminal Justice and literature/creative writing? Is it Columbia U, or Princeton, or NYU, or other?

degrees in like social studies/longitude/latitude

I do not write research papers well, or any papers for that matter. I was wondering if there are any degrees (BA, MA, MS, PhD, etc.) that do not require much writing to graduate?

Do they also offer any majors/degrees in Psychology, Architecture, or Engineering? Do any of the other Ivy League schools offer any majors/degrees in those areas?

This program should have published authors as professors. A wide array of writing classes and specific writing degrees. It should allow the student to have published before graduation. Really appreciate this information. 10 points for the best answer.

Please?

I have looked at them all and it's always Literature or Enlgish majors with an emphasis on Creative Writing.

Ever since I was little I wanted to become a book critic. In a couple of years, I will be entering college. I have been reviewing different degrees and programs for college. I've narrowed it down to journalism and creative writing. Which one would be better for me for the career I have in mind?

I'm in the middle of an absolutely brutal class on formal poetry, and after a semester's worth of composing a poem a week, I worry that I am beginning to hate poetry itself (especially my own). I have a feeling that this will pass as soon as I get through the class and the deadlines and restrictions are lifted, but still... The burnout is worrisome. Anyone have any experience/wisdom in this sector? Thank you!

I'm thinking about the getting the hp notebook that has the touch screen capability. I'm not however sure if it's really that great a writing pad. I was also wondering what other option people who have it like about it.. Is it really reliable giving all that swiveling capability

My question is for experienced writers, especially those who have a degree in creative writing or something similiar. Writing is my hobby which I truly enjoy, but I have never had anything published to date so I state that I am a true novice. However, I am at a point where I would like to delve further into the world of writing, with the hopes of becoming published one day. I see various, expensive programs for Masters Degrees in Writing (MFA degrees). My undergrad is in business, so while I am educated, my former courses have not been writing-oriented. To pursue my dream, I write as much as possible. But I see options, such as these Masters Degree programs in writing, and I wonder, can they really make a difference? I am close enough to many colleges that offer such programs, including Emerson College in Boston which has a strong program. My first question is, is it worth it? It's expensive, but can it really make a difference as opposed to not going; i.e. can they teach you things and get you the connections that you likely won't get anywhere else? Also, my undergrad is not in English or a more applicable field - would this be a hinderance, and is obtaining an undergrad in English first possibly a better idea? Lastly, I wonder if it could be a waste of money, in that I may get similiar information from the books I have read on writing, etc., and there is always opportunity to take short writing workshops.... Tough call, but I would love to hear from those with experience in this area.

This is something that has been bothering me for a while. I'm currently in the midst of a major change in university and I'm unsure of really what programs I really want to be in to best hone what I think I'm best at. My previous major before the reconsideration was Film/Video with an emphasis on Animation, focusing more on the actual animatic process. This was chosen because my goal previously was, and remains to work my way to a position where I can viably pitch and write an animated series. Before I say anything else, I'd like to mention that you don't have to tell me how hard it would. Everyone else in the world has already. Over the past year my priorities have shifted more into writing over art, with my current plan involving attempting to break into the industry via writing for other shows before trying to pitch. I've considered switching to an English major with a creative writing emphasis. I just don't know what the people that hire actually look for in a writer. I should have specified a few things a bit further, althoug I don't know whether it will make a difference; the writing for television means more of the writing fiction and scripts and such for fiction programs in contrast to newswork or nonfiction writing; while I have done that sort of writing previously, I'd like to think that I'm better at creative fiction writing, without sounding too condescending...

i've been writing stuff for over 10 years now, with two novels that i'm writing now. i specialize in action/adventure stuff, mostly war. Most of my work is dismal with anti-corruption tones, and a lot of my stuff is comparable in timbre to stuff like The Road. I'm in my 2nd year of junior college, just getting my pre-req's out of the way. I plan to attend a 4 year liberal arts school for 1 or 2 years to get my resume up a little bit more, then i plan to attend Eckerd Arts school in Florida. I plan to pursue a Creative Writing major, maybe another degree on the side. What job opportunities are available to someone with a Creative Writing Bachelor's degree? I've always been interested in doing movie scripts and things like that, but that industry is a sinking ship. It was dead the day that someone figured out how to fileshare. What careers are available in the video game industry for people with such degrees?
