@@ayaankhan3347 I agree with you. That is one way of doing things. I decided to do it this way because: - I have some savings to survive for a few months without a job. - I can focus solely on writing and create an online profile. This will help we get a job in writing in the coming months.

So, it's a bit tough question to answer. I cannot predict the future. So, my approach is to plan month by month. Right now here's what my plan looks like for the next 2-3 months: July: Continue writing and generate enough content that can be presented as a portfolio. August: Start looking for content writing jobs using the portfolio created till July. September: If I find a job, great! If not, take a call on whether to continue searching or go back to software engineering jobs. I have a friend who runs an ecommerce business. They have a small team. So, I am also in talks with him to see if they need a content writer who can write ads and other things for their social media marketing. That's all I have right now. I can only hope that things will go my way and I will get a job that involves writing. If things don't go my way and I have to go back to a software job, atleast the habit of writing will stay with me. And I will continue writing on my own time.

@@ankitkante Huge respect to you boss I am a final engineering student I also wanted to learn about storywriting but I always have that regret that I have read very less things but to me storytelling is very fascinating its my favorite thing to do I will sit with my group of friends And I will tell them stories in my way there I tweak with the facts and play accordingly to grab there attention and to get there reactions , But I am going for my job now hopefully someday I might get courage like you to do something related but now just focusing on my job . But I would really Like to follow your journey for learnings and new adventures I hope you achieve what all you wished and worked for .
