Combining a marketing career with freelance journalism? I’m a recent journalism school graduate; being a journalist is something I really strive to do and I love the work. However, yesterday I got a really good job offer for a marketing position. I think I’m going to take it—it pays well and has good benefits, and it’s an interesting role.

I don’t want to give up on journalism though, so is it possible to somehow do both? Is freelancing on the side a realistic option? 

I’m just trying to make sure I don’t give up on journalism entirely if I decide to get back into it later on.
