Because it's what I need

[serene]

I gave myself until March 1st (hey, that's today!) to decide whether or not to turn in my grad-school applications and pursue my Masters in rehabilitation counseling (basically, counseling adults with disabilities).

I've decided not to do it. At least not this year. Rather than spend next year doing school and work both, racking up more student-loan debt, and changing career paths, I've decided to spend that energy/time/money on actually finishing some writing projects. This week, I'll decide which project(s) I'll be prioritizing, but I already feel happy and relieved, which is one way I can tell it's the right decision for me.

I may start blogging a lot about writing. I will try to be considerate with cut tags. Wish me well.

Good luck and good for you for figuring out what you want to do and what you should do. Good luck with the writing!

I wish you well and would love to read about your writing!

Good luck with this, I was thinking last night that as soon as I get the surgery I'm waiting for out of the way I need to start seriously writing again.

I may start blogging a lot about writing.

Sounds good to me!
