I've been so lucky recently to land my dream job working at a certain writing consultancy/membership organisation in their writer support team. It's part-time, so I still get two full days (plus weekend) for writing *and* I get to talk to writers about writing all day long and be paid for it. I feel so much more part of the professional world of writing because of it.... Plus, I do have a very, very supportive husband. Best of both worlds. I'm very lucky :)
Oooh, congratulations, Rachel! You'll be brilliant at that work, I know you will, and that sounds like the ideal mix. Having recently acquired a super-supportive spouse, I can attest that it helps hugely too.
And with the day job. episodes of writers guilt. The little annoying voice that objects to time spent in indulgent creativity, ever alert to examples of "serious" responsibilities neglected.
My voice sounds like Monseigneur Campbell, who cursed at the alter boys under his breath if they were late with holy water or bible.

Ooh- and again, congratulations on your recent nuptials (that’s one of my favourite words, nuptials!) 😊🥰😊
Thank you 🙏🥰🙏
