Do I really have to go to college in order to be an penulis ?

College isn't a necessity in the sense that anda don't need a degree to be a published author, but every bit of education anda can get rounds anda out as a person and adds to your experiences. (And yes, non-academic life adds to your experiences too.)

Not necessarily. College will add to your experience level and knowledge of good writing, but anda dont have to. And if anda just hate the fact of school for that, most colleges have online menulis courses anda take. But anda dont necissarily have to go to college for writing.
