A professor of mine was impressed with some of my writing and knew of my passion for baseball. He met me in private near the end of the semester and told me he had an internship available he could offer me through my university, writing press releases in the MLB office in Manhattan for the commissioner of baseball (Bowie Kuhn at that time). However the job had a pre-requisite of a course in journalism which I would have had to take over the interim and that would have taken 4 days a week through January at 8 hours a day, and I just couldn't do that after just starting up my business a year or two before.
But at times I still think about that road not taken, even though I have no regrets with the choice I made.
You should start with a local paper or something easy to get into.
You will get in the habit of thinking and writing, and deadlines.
