I often find myself saying (out loud), "Damn, I'm lucky." And 80% seems about right. For the most part I even like doing the drudgery stuff, although there are some gigs where I just have to groan, but really, it's 80%+ good.Mark Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09410424046477699059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8357124.post-91824748112932598742011-06-06T10:49:47.646-06:002011-06-06T10:49:47.646-06:00I agree.

I'm in the middle of writing the climax of my latest book, a book who's words feel as if they have to birth through the eye of the needle but that gives me great satisfaction as they do, and I just got this great writing gig. So. More money. But also just a reminder that this is a job, not just play.ssashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483283426518167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8357124.post-78992088778273808042011-06-06T09:40:46.778-06:002011-06-06T09:40:46.778-06:00Money woes also put me in a funk as far as creativ...Money woes also put me in a funk as far as creative process. The fact that I get quite a bit of editing work and ghosting work means I often weigh--make money doing THIS . . . versus toy around on my own stuff which may--or may not--sell.<br /><br />Writing is, for me, fun about 80% of the time--mostly when I can leave the aforementioned funk out of it.Erica Orloffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16415925758466527671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8357124.post-10851183965903595062011-06-06T07:15:49.709-06:002011-06-06T07:15:49.709-06:00Marne,

Myself (which is pretty much what you're talking about). Funny how that works. Ah well. Good luck with your next novel and Congratulations!
