Were there such a competition, here's how I think things might stack up:
- Marathon Runners--Novelists; scribes of epic tomes. Writers in it for the long haul.
- Sprinters--Shorts story writers; ad copywriters. Writers who specialize in brevity and speed.
- Synchronized swimmers--collaborative screenwriters. Writers who work seamlessly with others.
- Boxers--Investigative journalists; op-ed columnists. Writers who pull no punches.
- Wrestlers--Whitepaper freelancers. Writers unafraid to put their arms around a subject.
- Divers--Tech writers. Writers whose every move must be exact down to the finest detail.
- Gymnasts--Agency writers. Writers forced to vault blindly and jump through hoops for clients.
- Powerlifters--Speechwriters. Writers whose words carry great weight, but risk leaving a resounding thud.
- Hurdlers & Steeplechase runners-- Corporate marketing writers.Writers who face a myriad of obstacles from the starting gun to the finish line.
