Blog 1

A few of the Job titles that Professional Writers hold are:

Technical: Explaining technology, giving information on how things work, how to use them, how to fix them, what could happen, etc.

Medical: Compiling information for medical journals, medication, medical equipment, etc.

Translation: Translating works from one language to another.

Web: Presenting information via the internet, often for a company or product website.

Inner-Business: Documents that circulate only within a singular company. Including memos, business plans, office manuals, etc.

Proposal: Putting together proposals for an organization.

Speech: Making speeches for politicians, business leaders, etc.

Media: Documents for books television , movies, internet, etc. about said television shows, movies, and so on.

I think I am most interested in Media Writing and Web Writing, largely because of the multi-faceted nature of the two. I also think it would be interesting to learn about the rhetoric needed for Speech Writing. Finally, I find interest in Proposal Writing, because it's needed no matter what type of business you are in.

I can't pin-point any singular aspect I would like to learn more about.
