I started out as a journalist and ended up as a Web/computer writer and Web designer of sorts. I think it’s difficult to break into any professional writing gig just because you want to, but it can be done. Your writing samples are very important. I suggest interning at your city magazine and writing for you local newspaper, church bulletin, anything…just get started and then keep shooting higher. Even maintaing a blog where employers can see your tone and style is great.

To be at my “hey baby” weight, I have about 15 more pounds to lose. I’m on the right track, I just need to work out more.

Five weeks ago I changed my eating habits and have comfortably lost and kept off 10-12 pounds. I’m in “phase 2” of the change, and I love it.
I’m still going to lose about 15 more.
