I still manage to spend around 40 hours a week at work but it is a lot more focused on what can make money as opposed to what makes me look good in the papers.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Once upon a time, I was a workaholic clocking more than 80 hours per week. That changed after I began to write. I now work only around 35 hours per week. I do not work on weekends because these are the days that I use for research as well as for my writing.
Working hard is way more fun. If you had to goof off 40 hours a week, you couldn't do it. It would drive you crazy.
Most working days I can be at my desk for nine hours a day.
I am a working person. I always work, study or do research for my novel. I even work on Sunday.
I'm a workaholic. I could easily work 300-plus days of the year.
I work eight hours a day, but I'm not writing all that time. I'm thinking, editing, looking something up. Thinking is what I do a lot of.
I work for me, 18 hours a day. It's my gig. So I don't have time to get a point of view.
I like to work for four or five hours a day. I aim for seven days a week.
I'm working over 80 hours a week and have to keep on track.
I used to work about 100 hours a week; now it's about 70. But 40 hours? Forget about it. Either you're all in, or your not.
