Writing is a funny thing. It's not like you're working on a schedule. It comes in fits and starts.

Like everyone else, there are days when I don't want to go to work. However, writing is a job like anything else.

Writing is something I can do by myself.

I would recommend, definitely, developing a 'day job' that you like - don't expect to make money writing!

I have a day job, which means my family isn't dependent on the writing income. So if I have an idea I like, I write it.

Writing a book is such a full-time job. If you're away for a few days, you have to start again.

Writing is a creatively rewarding occupation but for me very time consuming.

I haven't always been a writer and I suppose I tiptoed around the idea of writing full time, because it's so isolating.

I never bought the excuse of not having time to write. If you really want to do it, you're either going to find those hours or eventually decide not to be a writer.

Writing is not the easiest way to make a living. Your work long hours, usually all by yourself. It is not a way to make money.
