Yeah, finding a job with an English Lit. degree is very hard. If I understood right, you want to be a preschool teacher? There should be opportunities in that field. It doesn't pay much but that's why there should be openings. Check with local job agencies or the state employment office. You may find something through one of those. Good Luck

Go to the library and check out the "Writer's Market." Buying the book can be rather expensive. This book contains magazine, book, literary, etc. publishes across the United States. There is a UK version as well. There are "Writer's Market"s specifically designed for novel and short story writers and poets. Look up the local publishing companies in your area and submit your resume. It can't hurt. Also, check out freelance job sites. Send query letters to magazines and script publishers. (You have to try more than one. The publishing industry is cut-throat.) See if you can turn your script into a novel. Look for internships to gain more experience in the writing field. Almost every company needs writers. It may not be the type of writing you want to do, but it will be experience and a paycheck. PR firms need press release writers. Look for grant-writing workshops (high-paying industry). Business to Business publications are very popular even with the economy dropping. (These are magazines you won't find at the book store.) For freelance sites, check out DemandStudios.com, WiseGeek.com and Factoidz.com. Factoidz allows you to publish on any subject and you pick the title. After 30 days, you retain the rights to your articles and can submit them to other sites or publications. The site offers up to $10 per 1,000 views and a monthly activity bonus that grows exponentially. To bypass the application and writing sample, use this link: http://factoidz.com/earn-revenue-now/9M19768. Check out MediaBistro.com and JournalismJobs.com for additional job leads. Also, look into staffing agencies in your area. Often proofreading companies will do the temp-to-hire route. Staffing agencies can direct you to these positions. If you're a creative writer and would like to start an online creative writing group, maybe you and I could find other creative writers and review work. It might help us all get our novels/screenplays/short stories published. Good luck
