“Why do people think writers are capable of anything except sitting in a room and writing, usually without benefit of being completely clothed or especially well-groomed?”

these are things that happen

One of the nice things about being a full-time writer, working from home, being your own boss, and all that jazz, is if on some Friday or other you manage to sleep until noon, hey, it's OK! You've got nowhere to be tonight. You can just shift your work day later into the evening. You set your own schedule, and that's cool.

Another nice thing about being a full-time writer, etc., is that if in the middle of your work day, your husband, after pretty much isolating himself with his nasty sinus cold on the couch all week, suddenly sits up and says, "Hey, what are you up to? I thought maybe we could order out and watch TV together," well, you can decide to drop everything and do that. It's been a rather long and lonely week, after all.

The only problem is, should both of those things happen on the same day, well. There goes your Friday.

But another nice thing is the ability to designate Saturday your substitute Friday.

See you tomorrow.
