For those who want to work with writing there are plenty of job opportunities out there.

If they'd like to work with fiction, there are tons of jobs you can get. You can go the standard author job and write books for a living. Or you can work in editing, as a literary agent, or any number of publishing jobs.

If they'd like to work in the corporate world, big businesses are always looking for writers. These are the people that write company wide memos, come up with slogans, do company newsletters, etc.

There are thousands of magazines a person can work for writing articles. They could write on any subject that interests them - birds, hiking, fishing, cars, sports, etc. Magazines are always looking for writers and editors.

You can also work in the technology field. Companies are looking for people to write manuals, FAQ pages, About Us pages, and a bunch more.

The point is, if your friend wants to work with writing for a living, there are plenty of job opportunities out there, you just have to find one you like and go for it.
