#ThrowbackThursday An update piece from last year. The struggles haven't changed, and neither has my determination to succeed, even if it takes a bit longer. (shared with friends link so it's free to read).

Are you doing your dream job?

Bonus points if you add what your dream job is.

I wanted to work in a bank until I did my work experience in one & realised how boring it was. Teaching was my 2nd choice. I never thought I'd make it as a writer.

What is everyone reading?

I've just finished Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch and am about to restart Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros.

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

@markemusgames Compared to me, yes. Take each cent as a small win.

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

@autcareandshare Sorry to here you had to go through that. It's a nightmare. I lost my orginal FB account due to hackers. Glad you're back.

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

@stephenRB4 yes

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

Yep, and then everyone looks at you like it's your fault

Kaboom.

@DzintraSullivan Now that sounds like a plan

I'm supporting our local children's grotto. We're raising money to make the grotto better than ever. To help, a local hotelier and avid supporter of the grotto is having his chest waxed if we raise £1000. We are halfway there, including offline donations.

The freelancing and creative worlds are scary places to be at the moment. Even established freelancers are losing clients.
It feels impossible for smaller creators to hold on.
How do we adapt and overcome current issues, including the rise of AI?

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

@markemusgames The inside of my eyelids mainly, but I did also finish Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch.

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

@invisiblemoth1 I feel your pain. I honestly feel like I spend more time screaming into the social media void than I do writing.

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

@therealSIR3 Yes, plus I have decided potato is a shape and I am potato shaped 🤣

Good morning. Starting the week on a positive note.
Writing goals for the week:
1. Write something every day
2. Publish at least one short story online
3. Gain at least one membership on Buy Me a Coffee (link is in the comments)

What are your goals for the week?

[CathyLouiseWriter @cathyablett]

It's a sunny Sunday in Paignton, and I've spent most of the day scheduling posts and sorting paperwork. How has your day been?

I've decided to defer my master's for a year. It's not a simple decision, but I have too much else going on and can't fund the course while I'm barely working.
