I'm new here.
So, some background- I'm 24, never held a 9-5 job (I have no clue whether that's good or bad). I grew up in an area of the country where the cost of living is outrageous and the property taxes my parents paid before moving to a lower cost area of the counter were astronomical.
I don't know if it's because the culture where I grew up seemed, defeating? I never wanted to get a job there because the whole rat race culture is something I'll never fit into.
There's a grocery chain near me now, that I love the atmosphere of when I walk in- so I'm considering getting a position there? I want to add more to my savings accounts and start really saving. Granted, I don't spend on many things.
It's going to take a few years to write and publish my stories- I'm afraid of a 9-5 job taking over my life and not having time to do writing, editing etc.
