A year or two ago, when I had just started writing short stories, I passed by the library and thought: “Wouldn´t it be great to be a writer? Dropping off my daughter at school in the morning, going to the library to write for a few hours and then pick her up again for lunch? What a perfect job that would be.”
This summer I decided to hire myself for my dreamjob. Just for a month and without any pay, but oh, how nice it is… Every morning I go to the library and I write. It doesn´t matter when I come in, it doesn´t matter when I leave, there are no deadlines and nobody´s assessing me. It´s only me and the story that wants to be told. I don´t know if I´ll be able to finish it, and if so, if it will ever be published. But I´m writing and I´m happy doing it, and that was the whole point.
They say “don´t push your luck”, but there´s nothing against gently ushering it in the right direction.
I´m writing and I´m happy doing it 🙂
It´s so nice to have a colleague like you! 🙂
Mooi! Als je feedback wil :), lees ik graag mee over je schouder. Wat ongelooflijk knap dat je jezelf de tijd en gelegenheid gunt!
Dankjewel, da´s heel fijn 🙂 Als ik genoeg heb bijeengeschreven ga ik zeker nalezers nodig hebben. dan zal je wel van me horen 🙂
You’re so gonna do it!
Thanks for the support 🙂
You’re a great writer, you love to write and you’re setting aside time to do it. You’ve got all the ingredients for a best seller :).
My brave girl 🙂
You never knew, but when I was a child, I had the same dream…
And now, it is so nice to read your stories!
Thanks mum 🙂

Dankjewel! Genieten is geen probleem, in de bib hebben ze airco 😉
