Hmm... English BA, eh? I have one of those—an honours BA, specialized, to be exact. I did that as a followup to a college diploma in business administration and marketing.
I should have gotten into marketing. I suppose I had a tough time "selling out." Now here I am working as an editor, though I don't know how good I am at it or how much I like it. In other words, I'm not sure how much longer I'll be doing this.
I suppose I need to find out how to make more money eventually. Either that, or get used to the idea of never retiring. At least editing is low-impact.
