If you're feeling bored and frustrated, with nothing to do except go to work, clean house, cook dinner, feed the offspring, feed the cat, walk the dog, weed the garden, mow the lawn, check the bank statement, watch Match of the Day or The Great British Bake Off, perhaps you need a new interest.
So, assuming you enjoy
reading and managed to stay awake through at least a few English
language classes at school, why not become an author? Writing fiction
- creating fictional people, putting them into scary or crazy
situations - is FUN, and
a long long way from writing an essay on 'What I did during the
summer holidays'.
Perhaps there's no risk of your becoming the new Stephen King,
Katie Fforde or J K Rowling, but hey, who needs money? And no one's
saying it's not hard work, but the enormous, amazing, fantastic
pleasure is in creating a world from inside your brain that's totally
different from anyone else's.
So,
why not have a go? It's easier - and harder - than you think!
