haha... i agree... but then again... living is a full-time job in itself... and everybody dies of living... it's inevitable...eventually... so you see, there is no escaping death from overwork... you have to breathe like it or not...

I know! Ever since I started doing the writing thing, I find I fall more and more behind on everything, mostly because to make any money at writing you have to work all the friggin' time. And it's funny, because while I have more to do than ever before, I still have to deal with skeptical looks from banks, landlords, and former employers when I tell them I'm a freelance writer. In fact, on most forms, the only options are "Employed" (which requires that an employer be listed) or "Unemployed" (which I usually have to select). Apparently, if you don't work in an office building and you don't have an employer's name to write down, you don't count as being employed?
