This week, I’d like to continue a writers notebook building exercise that I started at the end of last month.
That’s right, it’s a list!
I love lists. Today, we’re going to make a list of jobs.
100 jobs someone can have, to be precise. Because sometimes you’re going to have that character that has a job that isn’t a huge part of their story, but what they do for a living still matters. Lots of them, probably. And it’s far more fun to write about some unique or interesting job than a boring one, or one that everyone’s heard of.
Just like last month, I’d love to see a list built here, right on the site. So, same rules as last time. I’m going to list ten jobs. Then, anyone who wants can list ten more in the comments section.
1. Vet
2. EMT, or Ambulance driver
3. Housekeeper
4. FBI agent
5. Waiter
6. Copy editor
7. Police officer
8. Illustrator
9. Librarian
10. Writer
Funny thing is, I’ve also wanted to be all of the things on that list at one time.
What can you come up with?
