Copy writer, copy editor, proofreader, print production manager, markup.... technical writing... grants... speeches... then PR. I used to call it being a wordmonger.(Rant on):
Now, however, I prefer the term Media Slut. A Red Cross press campaign and multiple releases churned out within a half hour of a fatal housefire-- to raise money of course-- and dispatching another caseworker to help the fam instead of going to help them myself-- when your hands get that dirty, you're past hack all the way to sloppy seconds.
(Rant off.) I suppose since I don't talk about this side of my experience it's only fair I get tagged as a pollyanna. Surprise!
