I've always wanted to become a writer but I took nursing instead. I thought, "why not become a medical writer?" The problem is, I'm only an LVN. I'm going to pursue my RN but for now, I'm working at a long term care facility in order to gain some experience. I'm going to stick with it until I can't take it anymore. Today is my third month working at an LTC facility.
The question is: do I need to finish a Bachelor's Degree in nursing in order to be a medical writer? Do I have to get a Ph.D and/or a Master's Degree? Can't LVNs be a medical writer? I know it's going to take a while but I'm willing to pursue my dream of becoming a writer.
The reason I prefer to be a writer because while I'm book smart, I'm bad at hands on training.
