Yeah, we'll see haha. I wonder if I can just write a dissertation somewhere and they'll tell me if I can get a PhD. I've also looked at certain programs that are PhD programs and they require a master's to get admitted. It would not necessarily have to be a translation studies PhD, either. Like I was thinking of getting a creative writing PhD, perhaps. But I need money first.
