Hi Andrew, would you happen to know if there are any support groups for dads who worry about these things? I've had similar worries and very much connected with this. : )

Had this one bookmarked. Good stuff.

I turn 43 in a few weeks and I started writing full-time as a passion project at 38. I had the luxury of financial security and success in my previous lives, so I was always able to approach my work with fearlessness.

Ironically, your work suffers when it's the only thing in your life. If I never sell my novel, I'm still a dad, a husband, a loyal friend, and a writer through and through.
