Opportunities in Writing Careers

42/100
👎 Skip It
In 1999 this was a solid career reference, but a quarter century of digital transformation has made the salary data, market landscape, and career paths largely obsolete. Entire categories that now dominate writing careers — content marketing, social media, podcasting — simply do not exist in this book. There are far more current resources available at no cost online.
