Is there a downside to being a writer?
Sure there are fantastic parts of being a writer.
I mean, first of all, you get to write!
Starting from there, you have basically won.
And of course I am not going to lie: The schedule is not bad.
“The downside of being a writer is you get plenty of time to overthink your life.”
–Donald Miller, Scary Close
In reality, this seems like the opposite side of the coin to just having too much time on your hands.
Part of that can be a blessing, it’s true.
And part can be a curse.
