Use Your Useless Degree: How to Use Your Humanities Degree in a Career as a Freelance Editor and Writer - Paperback

by Kathrin Herr (Author)

"Humanities degree? What are you going to do with THAT?!"Sound Familiar? If I had a dollar for everytime I heard that question when I was graduating college...well I would have answered, "Thanks. Now that I'm a millionaire, I'll be doing nothing with my degree." That question has a clear undertone: "Your degree is Useless." Unfortunately, subtly judging questions don't make us any money. When I was graduating with a BA in Religion from my small liberal arts college in small-town Iowa, I felt like I had only two options: go to law school or become a pastor. I chose neither...and decided to wing this thing we call life. I'm so glad I did.If you're a humanities grad with an affinity for wordsmithing and grammar, all you need to become a successful freelance editor and writer is a little business/publishing world know-how. Lucky you, I made all the mistakes and figured out what actually works. In this book, you'll learn exactly what I did to succeed as a freelancer. Ready to Use that "Useless" Degree?!
