New writers looking for a career do not always realize .just how many
paths there are to choose within the writing field. It is easy to see
the writer's role in the production of a book or a newspaper, but
writers are present in practically all types of scripted activities for
public viewing -- be it the evening news, the morning cartoons or
political speeches. Of course, most writers find it necessary to do more
than one type of writing! The art of shaping words is employed in an
incredible number of job types.
Play writers are the most glamorous writers in the writing
profession, but the potential for fame is greater than the potential for
making an income of it. With a highly limited number of theatrical
ensembles, there's a market for only so many plays per year. To get a
play script accepted it is essential to live in the right place and have
the right connections in the theatre business, and the number of
hopeful beginning playwrights outnumbers by far the ones who get lucky.
Amateur theatre companies will accept the occasional manuscript, but
there's very little income in that. Radio is a market, if you can get in. There's also competitions.
