To whoever cares to read,
Hey guys! I've been working on my new novel recently, and when I mean "working" on it, I mean attacking it with a sledgehammer because, you know, I love it but I also think it could be better so I destroy and rewrite and destroy and the experience has been pretty terrible and wonderful and that's just the beauty of editing your own book. It's awesome, however I have moments where I have to control the urge to throw my laptop at the wall. How has your week been going?
Unfortunately, I'm a working girl with 3 (2 1/2?) jobs. Sort of. Still an optician, and recently started proofreading for another company, and also a freelance editor (who has had a total of one order in the past four months. Yup, pretty popular over here). But still it's never enough. I want more money, so I need more hours, but I don't want more hours as an optician, because I want more experience as an editor, but they don't pay enough money, so here I am. But that's okay, because I'm young (for now).
But enough about that. At the rate I'm going, it's probably going to be another month or two before I'm finished editing my book and can send it to an editor for fine tuning. If only there were more hours in the day (OR I could quit all of my jobs because I either 1) married a rich man 2) won the lottery or 3) found a sugar daddy that doesn't want any sugar).
Life is hard.
