Where I live local newspapers are nothing more than ad space, and are distributed in a manner of paper spam. So local newspaper writer pretty much means copywriter.
Not OP.

Gawker contributor.

You can't really identify yourself as a talentless hack unless/until someone else does. It's too much of an honorific. At this point you're below talentless hack OP. Good job.

If you're intelligent but have no talent, I suggest law school. Get into a good school (easy with a decent LSAT score), bust your ass a little for a year, breeze through the last two, and then your job pays $160K.

Very easy to cruise along bereft of talent in law.

I'm an RN.
Worked out alright.

Pretty good way to force yourself into interacting with people as well.

I previously wrote for Examiner.com and I am, indeed, a hack with no talent. They pay shit but you can write as much shit as you want.

Writing suburban bullshit like "The Corrections" and "Infinite Jest".
