find a job i actually like

I’ve figured that I need to stop wishing for what I don’t have and make the most of what I do. I don’t dread getting out of bed on a workday, I love my collegues, I have a decent boss and I’m appreciated in my job. I pretty lucky really!

So I’ve been looking into doing a correspondence course which is called a Diploma in editing, publishing and proofreading. I’m willing to do the study as long as I know I’ll get something out of it at the end. And I’m worried that a course like this won’t be enough to actually qualify me to do the work. I’ve tried to do a bit of research into it but because ppl mostly work freelance it’s v difficult to find any information. Companies that are set up in editing / proofreading ask for a masters or PHD in a specialised area (I suppose when they edit thesis and stuff they would need to know about the subject). So the juries still out on this.
