‘My wife is a successful full-time writer. As far as I can tell, she hates it’

November 12, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Jeezuz…

She complains about the instability, isolation, and loneliness, but she also hates the competition, fame, and media attention. She struggles with deadlines and self-motivation. She sometimes gets so caught up in her work that she can’t sleep and forgets to eat or shower. She says “I hate writing” and “I hate this so much” all the time.

I never talk to Arnie about my work. Ever. I doubt he even knows I have two books coming out next year.
