05 Jul 2006 11:40 AM Some Days ...It's hard to explain to people that what I do is write for a living. They always say things like: "write what?" or "You can get paid for that?" I know that most of the time they don't mean to be insulting, but then again -- it feels that way. I work on average about 40 hours a week -- spread out over all seven days so that I am not taking up huge chunks of time from my daughter if I can avoid it. Some weeks, I work more, some weeks I work less. This is why I like what I do -- I have the flexibility to be here and not in an office. I answer to me and not to other people. I work on my schedule and in my own way. It's a comfort to me really -- then someone says something like -- 'if you had a real job' -- Like I said -- just some days.  Libby Pelham |
