As writers we’re faced with having to
start over
with every new story,
chapter,
paragraph…
It is not uncommon for a re-write of
our first chapter
to happen upwards of 7 or even 10+ times…
But what about starting your career over again?
I’m at a crossroads
where it is imperative that I make part-time wages
to help support my family
and my writing is barely breaking even with my expenses
at the best of times…
So,
that means looking at my career
as a
writer
from a whole new perspective.
It means re-imagining,
re-defining
and
re-developing
my notion of this career
and how to make it fit my life…
It’s starting over again
on the grandest of scales
and it scares the daylights out of me…

What is it about starting over that either inspires you or scares you too?
