As someone who is still in college and unsure of what to do after graduation, I was considering going into this part of the writing field. However, I desire to be a story writer. Would this option still be a good fit for me to get my foot into the writing field? I currently have the option to pursue a internship as a grant writer, but I do not know anything about it nor have I taken a course on grant writing.
@LearnGrantWriting Жыл бұрын
All great questions. There is a facet of storytelling within grant writing, specifically as you craft a needs statement. I will also add that you do not need to be a writer to get into grant writing, contrary to what you might think. Grant writing requires straightforward, simple language. You can take our career fit quiz to see if grant writing is a good fit for you. You can find that here: www.learngrantwriting.org/successful-grant-writer-quiz/ The question back to you is, what kind of life do you want to build & what career can get you there?

Yeah! That's so exciting that you'll be pursuing grant writing. You won't know if you like it unless you give it a try. University courses in grant writing are great at covering the foundation of writing, but they fail to fill the gap on how to take the skills you acquire into the real world. We're cheering you on and we'll be here when you're ready to utilize your skills in effecting real change while making money as a grant writer.

Hey Matt! Absolutely. In fact, I just got off a coaching call with a member who closed out the year, after intentionally working part-time hours, making over $50k. She said grant writing "allowed (her) the flexibility to juggle being a mother, wife, household manager and professional, in and around taking (her) kiddo to a special needs school." Stories like this are happening every day. Where are you in your grant writing journey?
