A Change Is Gonna Come

Well, one of the things I struggle with most in my life is time management.

I know. Big shocker, there.

Balancing a disabled husband, full time job, and fledgling writing career with some kind of regular life escapes me quite often.

And so, I have made a big decision. I am giving up my full time job and going to part time. That way, I can have more time to devote to writing, blogging, and promotion.

Is this the smartest thing for me to do in the current economy? Possibly not. Am I crazy? Most definitely.

The thing is, I'm at a point in my life where I know I need to make a change. A REALLY big change. We're only on this rock for just a short while, and need to make the most of it. Continuing on the path I've been on for the last 11 years just wasn't working for me anymore.

So at the end of September, I will join the ranks of part time. I will still look for another job, but hopefully, I'll be able to get enough writing done so that I won't need it. All I can do is try.

Wish me luck!
