I think I am going to start writing again. I've written before, a long time ago - but my work always turned out badly because I didn't have the patience to finish it properly once I'd started. I'd get over excited and mess up...
Well, in the subsequent years, I've gained even more life experience, an now I thin I'd like to give it a go again. I've decided not to go back to my old job, you see - one that was highly stressful and took me almost permanently away from my family. I also paint, so I'll be doing that as well. I also sing...but I'm not sure what the heck to do with my songs so that's on hold until I run across some proper leads in that department.
All in all, I'm creative. I need to be creative and express myself, not work for a corporation. It's scary, just packing it all in, because hey - like everyone else, I have bills to pay. But it's less of a choice, and more of a need and my body saying "enough - you aren't going to do this anymore".
So here I am!
How are you guys doing, and is this something you do for fun, or work, or as a way of life? Do you support yourselves this way (I know there will be differences between people, obviously

)? If I were, say, to write a half-decent novel or such, where would I go to try to get it published?
I'm so new to this...can you tell? *cheeky grin*
Anyway *HUGS* to all, and I am so thankful in advance for any guidance you can offer me
