@chipotle nice. My situation is similar, though I've been off (full time, traditional) work for the last 5+ years while raising my daughter. I've enjoyed (very) part time contract work and I can now pick up some more now my daughter's started school... but I can't bear to return to the office. Basically looking for 10 hours /week, working from home. But everyone (in Wellington) assumes the ideal work scenario is full-time. I'd love to expand what I do, so am following your blog with great interest. Good luck!
@chipotle also I write fiction too! Only just breaking in to getting published (one acceptance) but really enjoying the process.
@herself thank you! And good luck finding both work you enjoy and getting more things published. (I usually tell people that I'm so successful I'm making tens and tens of dollars with writing now…)
