I'm an unemployed schmuck in the midst of a career change. I am well educated (BA, MA, MBA, JD). My skills are largely verbal and analytical and reside between my two ears. My work experience is mostly traditional and conventional. I would really like to do something unconventional that would allow me the freedom to be independent, mobile, and creative. I've been writing for my own enjoyment since I was about eight years of age. I worked as an assistant editor on my campus fine arts magazine. And I am currently working on both fiction and non-fiction books. I am a single person and must be fully self-supporting from whatever endeavor I undertake. Please focus your thoughts, prayers and creative energies on this challenge that I am facing.
I admit to being unusually stressed and frustrated. And I have been and a bit out of sorts (sometimes more than just a bit) during this ordeal. Unfortunately, some of the people closest to me have born the brunt of that - which brings me to my second request. In a moment of frustration I impulsively did/said something that was disrespectful and hurt a dear and caring long-time friend. Something which was not intentional. We are speaking - but barely. I have extended an olive branch and have a token peace offering ready. I am quite willing to appologize - and eat a lifetime supply of humble pie. Obviously, the friend in question does not have to be receptive or respond in the way I might desire. I realize that I may well have destroyed a close friendship. All I can do is accept responsibility for what has occurred and seek her forgiveness. I am looking for such an opportunity. Please focus your thoughts, prayers and creative energies on this situation.
Thanks!
