As I continue to understand my call in life, I realize that I must not do one thing while compromising another. I must write, yes. Regularly and with great conviction. But I must also tend to the needs of those I care for. I have to do both.
Some of you may not have other responsibilities other than caring for numero uno (namely you yourself), but it is truly foolhardy to sink all of your ‘eggs’ into one basket. I can’t begin to count how many friends have tried to stick it out in L.A., only to leave after a few months of unrelenting rejection. If you’re going to make it as a writer–or any other creative in L.A., then you better have a backup plan…
Or at least a steady job.
