So… it’s been a while. I won’t bore you with all the
details, but last year I got a job which has sucked the life out of me. Very early
mornings, long hours, back-breaking work, split days off, and no ten minute
breaks in sight left me sleeping on the couch by three o’clock some days and
barely leaving the house to get groceries . I wanted to work on my novels.
Deep down I have always felt that there would be a future to my writing career
so I wanted to keep moving forward, but I still had other things to do. As little as we may like it, bills have to be
paid, beds have to be made, pets need taking care of, clothes need laundering,
dishes need washing, and the list goes on forever.
