Merry Christmas to all freelance writers out there…
Hey, it’s Christmas time and it’s also time to hang up the pens and pencils, stop writing and give those fingers a rest, y’all! Have a drink, be merry, bitch about a client, dream of having a write-less night, no more deadline (just for today) and just enjoy the merry atmosphere. Those kids of yours hovering outside the door while you’re writing and typing madly into the keyboard and computer….yeah, those are yours and they’re waiting for you to bring them somewhere special on Christmas.
Those phonecalls….yeah, the phone’s been ringing….those calls are from your frantic parents who thought they’ve lost their child to a writing syndrome! Answer the phone, for crissakes! And that turkey and tuna salad….they’re for you.
For freelance writers like you and me, a holiday is never quite a holiday until we give ourselves a break. It’s Christmas and New Year’s approaching. Time to give the fading alphabets on the keyboard a break, crack some knuckles and dig into the food and drain the wine bottles!
Merry Christmas!
