While I've been writing for years (13 or so), I've only recently started writing in earnest (i.e.: writing a single story with a determination I've not had before). I am also dabbling in Science-Fiction which I, remarkably, actually feel more comfortable doing. My day job pays the bills and my writing is a hobby. While I'd like to publish a novel, it is not my ultimate dream. Do you know how you have something in you that you just have to get out or you feel you might spontaneously combust? That's what this story is for me. Whether anyone else likes it or not, it has got to be set to paper, electronic or otherwise.
