Free-Lance

I've just offered to be a part-time contributor to my old school's monthly digest. I used to be the deputy editor, and it's been fun, even if I contributed to only one issue officially.

I think by doing it this way, I'd be able to look forward to a productive job at the end of each month. Plus, if the Editor-in-Chief agrees, I will stay on the team as a layout editor, so that my vision of a more attractive magazine can be realised! (I won't be not expendable too.)

Besides being an editor, I can also write my way into the magazine. I've got an idea for a series of short stories, starting with one that I've worked on many years ago. I'll do some tweaking on that one before I send it. Of course, it will be published on this blog the moment it is in print.

I've always been dreaming of being a free-lance writer. Now that I have an avenue, it would be the first step into the world of literature. I really hope that I'll be able to sell some of my pieces to popular magazines and newspapers one day. Besides the extra income, I'd be able to introduce myself as a writer, which is not as common a job as you might think...
