It has almost been a year and, yes, I am still working. I have sat in the basement coordinating stories and writing at home on my own time. It has been nice and simple. Well, that is a lie.
I have been learning the job, then learning how to do it well. Then with writing, I have been teaching myself to sit and, at least, stare at the computer. Following what you want to do with your life is always a daunting undertaking and I find myself wondering if it wouldn’t be easier to just do the job well and rise through the ranks. Truth is, I don’t wonder. I know it would be easier to just do my job and try for promotions and follow the set path of a working within a corporation. Of course it isn’t a given that following that path would bare fruit, but it is easier. Easier than finding the energy to work more when you are not being paid for it yet. I am keeping up the faith though.
Even if it is easier to follow the work path, I don’t think it would make me happier. And, that, is the real important thing in life.
Anyway, I am reading a lot. I am reading Neil Gaiman’s book, Good Omens, and Ernest Cline‘s book, Ready Player One. Both I recommend.
That is all for now. I keep telling myself I will keep this blog up and failing. Oh well, I’ll still do it every now and then.
Best,
ALC
