A Writer's Life

I have come to realise that my ambition of being a writer involves a lot of waiting.

The frantic activity of typing like mad to get the submission in on time is offset by the weeks, if not months, of waiting to hear the results.

Fortunately I’m a patient woman and don’t mind waiting for things. What I struggle with however are the overwhelming nerves that all this waiting creates.

My solution is to distract myself with more writing, which means more busy activity of typing, more submissions and yep, you guessed it, more waiting.

I think there may be a slight flaw in my plan…
