If money didn’t matter and you could do any job in the world, what would you do?
I saw this question on Lisa and Laura’s post a few days ago about growing up. It got me thinking…
As much as I’d like to say writer, there’s something I would choose over that:
An archeologist 🙂
Not surprising though is it? I simply love history–it’s a passion of mine very close to writing (which is why I write historical fiction–perfect blend of both passions, right?). I’m such a documentary geek; I’m always searching for them on Hulu and YouTube as well as on Netflix. I will watch a riveting documentary on the discovery of an ancient discovery over my favorite movies any day.
I think that’s also why one of my favorite blogs to follow is author Michelle Moran’s (Cleopatra’s Daughter, The Heretic Queen, Nefertiti) History Buff. Basically, she posts links to fascinating history stories found in the news.
I don’t know how many hours I’ve spent there, reading the stories, then finding another link that leads me to another interesting story and so forth…and I don’t know how many hours I’ve spent daydreaming, thinking about traveling the world and helping on an archeological dig…
Anyway, I’d like to pose this question to you.Â
If money didn’t matter and you could do any job in the world, what would you do?
If you’re like me and have two great passions–history and writing–or even more, that’s OK too 🙂 I’d really like to see your answers!
