Sounds innocuous enough, right? But it kind of struck me.
Of course I wouldn't write on the weekends if I were a full-time writer, but what an adjustment it would be. Right now, during the week I write after the kids go to bed. On the weekends, my hubby occasionally will take the kids out for a couple of hours to give me a chunk of time to write too.
Essentially, right now, I have two jobs. I just don't get paid for one of them.
Have any of you thought about the changes that would happen in your life if you were to become a successful author? Let's leave the dreams of J.K. Rowling-like millionaire-dom out of it. I'm talking more about how the little things in your life would change.
For me, the idea of working from home permanently is hugely appealing. I can just picture me sending the kids off to school, heading to my computer and working, then being home when they're done for the day. That would be a dream come true.
