still freelancing

[deird1]

Why is it that the most fun and interesting jobs are always the shortest?

Just got hired to write some Diary Entries Full of Hidden Clues for an escape room. SO VERY FUN. And it took me a grand total of three hours.

Punctuation-checking a textbook for the third time? Takes days. An awesome job that I'd do for free if I didn't need to eat occasionally? Three hours.


...I clearly need to develop a friendship with every escape room designer in the world, so that I can snag all the fun writing work.

Hee! Sounds like a career plan.

[deird1]

I think so!

Honestly, my career would be so much easier if I could just get people to hire me for the bits I'm actually interested in...

Hm... this does sound fun... *thinking about all the escape rooms around here*

[deird1]

SO fun. I’ve been to a few escape rooms, so it was quite interesting getting to help make one.

Sounds like a plan! :D

[deird1]

Woo!

But fun job is fun! There must be other things like this - game content and such, especially for those giant sprawling universes that go way beyond the original creation. You could totally make friends with those guys too.

That would be wonderful, but I’m not sure how! Honestly, I suck at finding clients...

Oh, that does sound so fun!

[deird1]

It really was!

[dimity_blue]

That does sound like a really fun task. I hope you get more jobs like that.

[deird1]

Me too! Not sure exactly how to find them...
