I just graduated with a degree in creative writing, but now am starting to regret not pursuing journalism. Is there any way someone without a journalism degree can break into the field, even in a minor way?

Also, as a side note, both my parents are social workers/therapists and have told me some horror stories over the years. The awareness you are raising is crucial, and I want to thank you for the work you've done for those who have no one left to advocate for them.

Yeah I'm curious too. Did you watch them? Because I can't bring myself to. I've seen my fair share of deplorable activities/traumatizing events on the internet, but the abuse of the helpless makes my stomach turn. I am curious about the contents, but I just... I just cant.

It means so much to hear this. I've only just graduated, so my current job washing dishes at a brewery feels like vacation for me right now. But once I get antsy, I fully plan to take your advice. If any other pro-tips occur to you, please let me know.

I'm the same way. Like, how many fist fights do you think you've seen on tv? Yet the first time I actually saw someone get punched in the face in real life, I was literally shaking from adrenaline and couldn't stop my mind from instant replaying it non-stop all day. It sucked.

Just got a PS4 after saving for ages. Here's a friendly tip- get Witcher 3, the Wild Hunt. It will give you endless things to do when Batman pisses you off because it's really hard sometimes.
