Break the Mold: Shifting from Nursing to Ghostwriting
From a nurse who did just that, and never looked back
Nursing is a noble profession that requires dedication, passion, and skill.
But let’s be real — it can also be incredibly taxing, both physically and emotionally. I know this for a fact because I’ve been a nurse over twenty years now. But perhaps you’ve been a nurse for years and you’re ready for a change.
If you’re considering an unconventional route, like ghostwriting, here are 6 realistic goals you can set to make a smooth transition.
1. Acquire relevant writing skills
Before you embark on your ghostwriting journey, it’s essential to acquire adequate writing skills.
This means being able to tell stories, write compelling content, and have flawless grammar. If you’re not confident enough in your writing, you can enroll in writing courses or workshops to improve your skills.
As nurses, we already have a jump on the pack because we can communicate complex medical information subtly and effectively. With the right training, you can take this a step further and become a successful ghostwriter.
