I've genuinely thought about doing some speechwriting but have no clue where to start and I imagine it would be a massive pay cut. I could deal with that for the right situation, but it's not like you can just walk in off the street and get a job writing speeches.
I've thought about it too, and the path seems to be that unless you know someone who can get you in you have to go find a campaign like Beto's and then work for him as a volunteer. That gives you the ability to showcase your stuff and build some chops, and then if he wins you'll get a west wing gig. After that you leave and pretty much take your pick from a variety of high-paying offers.
If he loses, well, back to the drawing board.
