25. What do you think about more than anything else?
Truthfully? How I look forward to writing for pleasure, not a deadline and how I can go back to arts and crafts and create something I am proud of :-)

This is one of the reason I stopped writing professionally. It got to a point of where I was tired of writing what other people wanted me to or and when. It's much more fun now, so be brave and keep at it. Soon!

"I was tired of writing what other people wanted me to and when".

That is exactly it!! I am fed up writing about stuff that I seriously don't give a crap about. Emile Zola - hope you are gyrating in your grave.

I have a journalism degree and worked for the paper. I did articles on everything from abuse to people being unable to actually get trash in the trash cans. I also freelanced for tech theatre magazines and that was sort of fun, but I really didn't get into the nuts and bolts of the sound systems.

I'm much happier now playing and writing when and what I want. Although I did have some great classes in College, though, and it really expanded my frame of reference more than once.

I am hoping that the close reading and analysis will contribute to being a better writer. That is what is keeping me going - the fact that this will be done in 6 months and I will never have to do it again.

I felt that way about my Linguistic class...
