2. Thanks
I've had periods of full-time writing before, but there was always the looming prospect/fear that it would all end and I'd have to go back to the reality of full-time work. Which is what always happened in the past.

I didn't think I'd have to wait till retirement to be a full-time writer. I really thought it would come decades before this. In some ways, this is a defeat: I didn't become a full-time writer because of writing success but because of age and Social Security! But I'm walking on air, anyway. I'd be leaping about like a spring deer if not for my damned knees. :)
