At the beginning of my ‘gap year’, due to the things I did on the side for subconscious excitemet, by default I found myself becoming self employed. So I made a name card and the position I gave myself, was Writer, and Freelance MC. Over the next year, I did just about everything but these two. During which, my actual work and portfolio experienced satisfactory progress to the point I started turning down offers, even meetings.
A year later, when it came time to reprint a new batch of name cards, I agreed with an associate that my position is misleading, pointless and should be rid off. It now simply says, Project Manager. Which is accurate, albeit vague.
In the past two months, I have had to MC five events and turn down two. One more scheduled in a month. A book project recently persisted I contribute a 800 word essay and shortly after a publication house asked me to be one of their writers. In about four weeks time, I start working full time for a sizeable corporation. I was not looking for a job and the offer fell on my lap. The position – Writer.
