    Part Three: What Do I Need to Do?

    by Lawrence Watt-Evans
    So you want to be a writer. Does that mean you need to go to college and major in creative writing? Does it mean taking night courses? Attending writers' workshops? Shelling out hundreds of dollars and a couple of weeks for one of the super-intensive workshops like Clarion?
    Nope. None of that.
    I never took any writing courses in college. I never finished college, for one thing; my first time around I intended to be an architect, rather than a writer, so I really didn't have any reason to take writing courses. After I flunked out of architecture school, I spent a year trying to sell my stories, and didn't do very well--I sold one rather silly little tale. I got re-admitted and went back to college majoring in myth and religion for two years, and then dropped out because my fiancee had a good job lined up about five hundred miles off campus.
    I'd been thinking about taking some creative writing courses my senior year, but since I never had a senior year, I never took 'em.
    From what I've seen of creative writing classes, though, they wouldn't have helped much.
    Consider: If these creative writing teachers actually know that much about writing, why aren't they selling stories regularly? (A few are, at the best schools, but most aren't.)
    I'd also noticed that while lawyers all went to law school, and doctors all went to medical school, most writers I met had not majored in creative writing. And while most law school graduates
