Question

Writting Skills, Hello I am 18, I currently graduated from high school, and I'm looking forward to college. Here is what I'm worried about. I want to go to school and get my degree in journalism/communications; The only thing is through out my Elementary, Highschool. I have been in special ed english and my writting skills are poor. My dreams is to work for a big network like cnn etc. I have a passion to get my communications degree but I'm scared because I know for a fact I have poor writting skills and many jobs require you have great writting skills. So what do you suggest to get around this.

My dream is to broadcast, and give news. This something I wanted to do all my life. I have worked with my school doing school news shows etc. I have a good voice that god gave me and I'm ready to put it to work.

Answer 1

Why didn't god like you enough to teach you how to write?

But seriously, to read news, you just need to have a good voice...TV writing is different than newspaper writing...it's all written phonetically.

However, you may not do well in college, and may not get a degree, if you can't write well. How about working on that, instead of trying to get around it?
