Full-time writing job!!!

[RedBaron]

I've been doing a few small jobs here and there, off and on. I'd had a dry spell since the end of November. I got three small jobs in the last few weeks, plus the on again/off again editing work I was doing for a local publishing company. I wasn't selected for one full-time job I applied for, but she could only hire 75 people for the first go around.

I got the contract for it this morning! I'm SO excited. I don't know if I'll be able to handle all the projects I've got going. I told the editor I'll need a leave (she had said that early on that she knows we all have other obligations) and she's always understood when people need breaks.

So now I have to see how much time it will take for the all the writing gigs and may have to drop something. It's nice to be able to say, "No, I don't have time for that job right now."

It's always feast or famine, but God has really supplied a feast of abundance this time.

I would have never been able to have this opportunity if it weren't for FaithWriters and the PM service giving me the first paid job I ever had (originally replied to a non-paid job) and the confidence to get out there. God is SO good.

It also means I may not be here quite as often, so be good

Oh I'm so happy for you! But a bit sad too because I need you to answer all my questions! But mostly happy! In fact, even though I'm still sore and not feeling great, I'll even do one of my patented HAPPY DANCE!! I wiggle and point my hands in the air and say Whoo-Hoo! People tend to give me funny looks when i do it in public, but just now only the cat and the dog glared at me!

Uh before you get too busy, can you walk me through how to invite newbies to the buddy group one more time? Maybe make out a manual for me Instead of Important things for Dummies you can name it Shann for Dummies wait does that even make sense?

I'm not vanishing, just going to have to be a bit more scheduled
I can still answer your questions, and I may be back to the editing gig, once I have a better feel for the schedule.

Now the name was supposed to be Shann for Dummies, Bea! Gee-Whiz, trying to take away my dummy status, even if it didn't make any sense!

Hey there's room for more than one dummie in this place

I'll second that Bea, I need all the dummie manual's I can get my hands on. I just goofed up sending a PM last night... Maybe one day, I will get everything down pat, but then I wouldn't have anymore questions. That would kinda take the fun away... Anyway, congratulations Shari, that is awesome for you. I pray you will know what to say yes to and what to turn down. God is good all the time! Bless you...
