The benefits of having all night to sit up and think

The more I think about it, the more I think I really would like to go back to school. The question is, what to major in. More pressing is the question of whether I should pursue a Master's or a second Bachelor's degree. I'm thinking a Masters is more beneficial, but I know some people have more than one Bachelors. Any of you non-traditional students out there care to give me advice based on your own personal experiences?

Well, I don't really have any illusions about becoming the next million-selling author. I know that like acting it will unlikely ever be a money-making venture in any real way. I'm prepared for that. It's a matter of purely emotional fulfillment.

I have a few "goal oriented" things in mind I could do a BA in. It's just a question of narrowing it down. And there's nothing stopping me from pursuing an MFA in writing at a later time. The fact that writing is such an uncertain profession I would imagine means you can sort of take your education in the field at a more liesurely pace.
