I Quit My Job To Write

One year ago, I worked my last day.  I clocked out and walked out of the building that I went everyday, whether I wanted to go or not.  I walked away from a good paying job with benifits.

Why?

I wanted to write.  I have been saying for years.  I just want to take a year off and write.  That never happened.  Then as I got older, yet to young to collect Social Security, I was getting tired.  I was to tired to write on my days off.  

One day, I was standing around, looking at my co-workers.  They were not happy.  They were there for the same reason I was, the paycheck.  There has to be more to life than just working.

I worked.  I saved money.  I could not see myself here until society told me I could quit working.  So I decided that if I was going to write the books I wanted to write, then now is the time.

I quit my job.  I gave them a one week notice.  I quit and I didn't look back.  I can say this past year flew by.  

I wrote and self-published Buy Now  E-Book/Print/Kindle Unlimited

I also wrote a Novella that will be published later this year.

I blog everyday.  My Other Blog  is My Walk With Jesus.  God pressed on my heart to Read the Bible this year.  God also told me to blog everyday about what I read.  

So everyday, I read the Bible and Blog everyday.  

The first thing I do when I get up every morning is to Read the Bible and then Blog.  So far so good.

A few days I go that I was struggling to write, even though I have written two books this past year.  I will still struggle.  But I do have something to keep bringing me back to the computer, Blogging.

So once I am at the computer, it  is easier to go to my other writings, I am already at the computer.

So what I am saying is that, I quit my job, because life is to short.  We could be dead tomorrow or ten minutes from now.

Do what God has placed on your heart.

Writing is a gift from God.

Use it.

There are days I don't write.

There are days I can't leave the computer.  

Today I have been sitting at the computer for the past three hours.  

Write, wherever and whenever.

I quit my day job and I don't regret it.

You don't have to quit your job to write, the choice is yours
