//**1. Career**// I would like to pursue a career in writing, possibly specifically screenwriting.



I believe that this career would suit me because for as long as I remember I have been creating stories and writing. I used to write complete short stories in elementary school for fun. When I was eleven, I got really into movies and I decided that was what I wanted to do; I wanted to create characters and put ideas together in unique ways which would ultimately result in something enjoyable for people. It was the first thing I was ever really passionate about. For writing, you need to be creative and artistic, and, in all of the interest assessments we've taken lately, Artistic has been my top result for every one. One of the top careers that come up in the Artistic category is creative writing so I think that I would be good at it. Writing/Language Arts has always been my best subject in school. It has always come easily to me. To really fit well in a job, you need to be good at it and you need to enjoy. Both apply to me with writing.
 * //2. Why the Career is Suitable for Me//**

Like I said above, I got really into movies when I was eleven. Even before that, though, I loved stories. I read nonstop when I was young and used to fly through books. I became especially obsessed with quotes from these books. The way that some words could fit together so perfectly and harmoniously fascinated me. Then, when I started watching movies, my love for quotes grew even more. I love writing quotes down and reading them over and over again in my head and out loud. I found that when I created my own stories, I was able to create my own quotes. I adore the feeling of stringing a particularly fine group of words together in a way that seems to make them all fit just right. I think that it's something that I will always love and be interested in.
 * //3. Why the Career Interests Me//**

//** 4. What the Career Entails **// Creative writers create content for mediums such as books, magazines, movie or television scripts.

//** 5. How to Prepare for the Career **//
 * Writers typically need to graduate high school, have a Bachelor's degree, and some on-the-job training.
 * You can get a Bachelor's Degree in some form of creative writing all over the country. I personally would like to attend school in, New York City, specifically Columbia University or NYU. You can get a Bachelor's in creative writing at Columbia and a Master's in it at both schools. Columbia would be my first choice, and I would like to get a Bachelor's degree.
