So, I've always wanted to write novels, and after some nice feedback on some vignettes, I've decided to give it a go. But, not quitting my day job as a programner. My wife is a visual artist: I know how that goes. The realities of the market are sobering if you think this is gonna be a lucrative side gig. But I like how writing creative fiction makes me feel; it'll save me mental health bills I guess.
