Prescot

Finished university with a mid 2:1, left my home of two years, my first home with mark, my main home away from home. Now living in prescot with a family with no money, which I have neither as jobs are few and far between and when they do arise and I apply for them but I don't get interviews.

Mark is moody and so am I. We are finding it increasingly difficult to find a place to live with our two other friends and to top it all off I had a lingering mind blurring cold for the past three weeks.

This is one of the bottom positions. The low points, the shitty moments in my life when the only thing I can do to releave my fustration and desperation is to write it. But I don't want to put it into a story in a blog, my stories have become far too long to put into blogs.

What is an acceptable job for a writer to do? What enables the writer to be freely creative and have time to concentrate, whilst enjoying a paying job?
Librarian or postman/woman would be nice. Always being around words and letters would hopefully inspire you.
Any line of work you do there are always going to be characters lurking amoung the faces.
Even if you were packing boxes of jam, there'd still be a lot of time to develop a story in your head.

I've deviced two stories since I've been in prescot. Its the only thing that is working at the moment. My imagination is soaring. Which is good I suppose, there is always something good to come out of the huge pile of stinking crap!
