It would be nice to report that I had been working on my novel this entire time. It would be nice.
Instead, I have been busy working on a development contract that is a bit more complex than I expected (a good way of saying I did a poor job of scoping it). So I have continued to feel employed. That part’s good.
Except I now have the definite knowledge that I am not continuing to get a regular paycheck. That part is definitely hitting home and is not so good.
I am overwhelmed with thoughts of trying to find some regular code hack gig, with a dependable monetary source but that would only require a portion of my time.
Eh, what’s that, you say? What about your dream? Don’t worry – I’m not abandoning it. I just feel the need to continue eating.
