With the rise of AI use and the continuous messages that writing won't pay enough and isn't sustainable, it's easy to be discouraged from majoring in creative writing, even though I really love it.

I love writing and reading very much; however, I really need help when it comes to expanding my knowledge of editing my writing. How can I achieve that? Additionally, some tips on improving grammar could also be helpful.

With AI on the rise and a higher dislike for reading, I don't know if this dream major of mine should be changed even with a backup plan in mind.

How can I use a Literature degree focused in creative writing in a future where AI is dominant?
