I wrote pic related in one month after quitting my job. Editing took a couple more months.

It was absolutely a retarded idea but I'd do it all over again because that job made my life a living hell.

It's not retarded if you are disciplined and have at least double your salary saved (1 yr to live on for 1 yr and a buffer amount for emergencies/shit hitting the fan).

If you aren't going to write on average 6-8 hours (whether writing or editing or shopping your shit around), does it really make sense to be unemployed? If you are looking to snag a few extra hours each day, but less than a full day, you could easily get a more flexible job.

>you can easily
That really depends on what field you work in and what your qualifications are. Someone whose only experience is is being a janitor for example isn't going to easily get a more flexible anything.

How old are you?

Did you find work again?

What qualifications do you have?

OP here. I have $30k in savings. I have worked without missing a single day for close to three years in a tech start up in SF doing data, editing + proofreading, etc. But it's not something I want to do any more. My mom and older brother can see how it's effected me and tell me I should quit, spend a couple of months at home to figure myself out and then either apply for a Masters (I'll be 26 starting) or find something I at least enjoy, even if it means less money.

Any advice?
