Career thoughts

Seriously looking at Freelance writing/editing possibilities. Unfortunately I'm (nearly) 40, and I've spent the last ten years either in Academia or non-writing-related jobs. So it's probably very unlikely.

I'm starting to wonder if I'd not prefer a job I could do on my own schedule and get paid decently. Don't worry, Wife, I'm not making any rash decisions. Or any decisions at all, at the moment. Just looking at possibilities.

Hell, if I had the capital (and if the economy wasn't tanked), I'd give thought to starting a retail business.
