Leaving Behind Your Day Job

I worked many jobs in my younger days: Papa John’s pizza delivery driver, Cedar Point amusement park employee, McDonald’s drive-thru worker, and KFC associate, just to name a few.


Most writers have worked a number jobs before finding the way or the means to pursue writing full time. Open Road Media has put together a lovely 2-minute video featuring David Corbett, James Salter, Susan Dunlap, and others, all speaking about their day jobs before they pursued writing.
