1) That’s a major?

Yes, it is a major. I will graduate with a degree in Writing and Linguistics. Along with a few super cool minors because that’s just what we do.

2) What are you going to do with that?

Well, I would like to write novels but my options are endless really. Being able to write well is an excellent skill to have so watch out, I may steal your future job.

3) Who is your favorite author?

If I like you, I’ll tell you it’s Cormac McCarthy. If there is a slight hint of sarcasm in your tone I’m going to go on a rant about how I can not even fathom choosing just one author.

4) Have you been published?

Hopefully if you are asking this question, the writer will say yes. I have been published, and I hope all my fellow classmates get published as well.

5) So are you a hipster?

I mean, if the beanie fits, then yes.
