Looking for a job
by Alexander Gusev
I graduated from the University with a Bachelor's Degree in Law two years ago. I've applied for 30 jobs since then, but nobody's contacted me yet. Although my real passion was writing novels, I decided to play safe and become a lawyer. I always thought there is big money in the sphere, so I was hoping to earn a decent salary. However, my plans crushed at the very beginning and I couldn't make any money at all.
While studying at the university, I was taking creative writing classes. My teacher told me I had a talent, but I needed to commit more to writing. Even though I was interested, I made a decision to focus on law-related studies. I managed to pass my law exams as well as writing exams, all with A's. But even good grades couldn't help me with getting a job.
I started feeling frustrated, and to calm down, I began to write again. I would search for new job offers in the morning and then spend the rest of the day typing. In order to share my works with other people, I submitted some of my short stories to a literature magazine. They printed all the stories, and soon I got a call from a publishing house. Believe it or not, but soon I'll have my first book published!
