Guess what guys ? It’s day four of the blogging challenge! Today’s topic will be…my dream job!
Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve loved stories. I begged my mom to teach me how to read when I only three years old and from that point, I haven’t stopped. When I was little, it was board books. When I got a little older, it was chapter books. Now, I’ve moved on to novels and blog posts.
But, I didn’t just love reading stories, I loved telling them too. When I was a child, I used to enjoy playing pretend with my dolls and stuffed animals. After school, I would frequently disappear into my room, which in my mind was a transport to another land far, far away. Pretty soon, I discovered the ‘power of the pen’ and wrote short stories with a pencil and paper. I illustrated a “cover” and stapled the pages together. Those were my earliest days of writing.
I moved to the computer eventually (After taking the ever dreaded typing class), and I’ve been typing up stories since I was about eleven years old. I self-published two nonfiction books (Teen Impact and Know Jesus Know Peace) during my younger teenage years and am currently working on a fiction series that I hope to publish. I have also moved onto other mediums of writing-namely blogging and writing song lyrics while still staying true to my first love: Books.
As you probably figured out, my dream job is to become a successful writer. I’ve had that dream since I was a little girl and it’s persisted into adulthood. I’ve grown in my craft through writing this blog and also through the blogs of others (Shoutout to all my blog friends!). I don’t know my future holds, but I do know that God holds my future in His hands. Thus, as I continue this journey into college and a future career, I’m going to trust God and continue sharing my random thoughts with my awesome, faithful readers and through blogging. 😉
So how about you guys? What is your dream job? Feel free to post your answers in the comment section!

Also, I’m sure you could write nonfiction, you have a very cool blog!

I’m going to have to check out your books! It’s really inspiring that you’ve already published (I’m working on my first novel currently). I always loved playing with dolls and making my own soap operas with them when I was little. I didn’t discover writing until middle school, and didn’t get passionate about it until I entered a poetry competition my freshman year of highschool. Keep up the good work!

Thanks Emily! That’s so cool that you did the same thing when you were little! A poetry contest sounds really fun, and good luck on your book! I can’t wait to read it when it gets published!😊

My dream job was to be a writer as well. Took me ages to work that out though. Other dream jobs were to be an actress/singer/dancer. And a dolphin trainer – of course – hehe.
