So yeah....

So after a year of fighting with myself about this I have decided that I am going to try and be a professional writer. The reasons that I have fought with myself about this is because I like the sure thing. That is why I have a master's degree in Library and Information Sciences because that is supposed to be a sure thing. It has not turned out that way at all. I am employed in my field and I love where I work but I have not gotten anywhere with getting full time employment in my field. I have put out over 170 applications in the past year. I have not stopped applying for jobs. I have just stopped counting. So because I have the time to write I have decided to try it for real. I am story boarding a new sword and sorcery fantasy for NaNoWriMo this year. I really want something that I know will pay back my student loans but I just do not see that happening to me. So I will follow what I think is the call of the universe and pursue writing. Prayer for me or wish me good luck or whatever because I'm going to need it. Badly
