Oh I'm not throwing in the towell...not by a long shot.  I don't think I'm capable of that. :)

Of course if I keep spelling words like 'towel' wrong, the road to success may have extra bumps in it.

It's called "work" because people pay you for it, if it were fun enough to do it anyway this wouldn;t happen.  It would be lovely to be published and even lovelier to earn a living from writing, but it does not seem overly plausible; meanwhile, so long as it's indoor work with no heavy lifting, internet access, and I get to go home at 5 every evening, I'll pretty much do any job people will give me.

Thanks for teaching me a new word. Work. I should really try and memorize it.

I did not intend this to come across as harshly as it seems to have read to you, and you have my apologies.
