Hi all,

I’m sure you get a ton of posts like this all the time; so I would like to apologize beforehand. I’ve even done a similar one before.

But basically I majored in political science and religious studies in college. I did two journalism internships, one film and one political. Both were unpaid, but I do have writing samples as a result and I know how to write in AP style and am knowledgeable about the SPJ ethics.

Since then, I’ve done a few odd jobs. I did a volunteer year during COVID at a food bank and the Presbyterian church and then worked for two solar energy companies (one as an analyst for a legit company and then as a door-to-door salesman for a scammy one).

I currently kind of work for the state regarding energy and conservation work.

I am wondering if it is too late to jump back into journalism, freelance or staff. I much prefer journalism to the odd jobs I’ve done.

As a student, I was my dream to cover politics of some kind (I did major in political science) for a paper. Now I feel I could write about a variety of topics, like about environmental issues, energy, and even film & media along with political news

Thank you all, I apologize if the post isn’t detailed enough or if it is the millionth post like this.
