/lit/ - Literature

Sorry for asking here but /adv/ is shit and it's literature related so whatever.
Ok so, here's some back up info to go with my main question.

I decided to switch to English literature in college cause I thought to myself, "Hey self. You know what would be a really cool idea. If you study English literature since you love it so much and love writing."

And that's what I did, I yeeted a couple of English classes and realized, goddamn, I fucking hate writing academic papers but I fucking love writing poems and such.

Fast forward a hospitalization due to suicidal mood swings this semester, and I decided to drop out of uni to get a technical degree in car mechanic stuff(yes i'm /o/ too) cause I hated those English classes and didn't see no future ahead for me besides writing or doing mechanic stuff.

Heres the question,

Is it viable to study creative writing somewhere (preferably SCAD) after I'm done with mechanic school and work for a couple years as a mechanic? also. Is creative writing the same bullshit as writing academic papers for English literature?

I consider myself an art hoe at heart and would love to be a published author some day and would feel a lot more fulfilled with a degree in fine arts and shit. Sorry for the lengthy post
