I'm self employed, and society educated. Quit the "real" job years ago to finish up a degree in English. Finished the degree and never went back, have a niche business that feeds me and leaves me time to follow this excruciating, painful dream of writing - problem is the process drains me so much I never do it. Hold a gun to my head and I'll start typing? There is a hope to be better at it, the sitting down part, and then hopefully the craft will become part of me. Dreams, dreams.
