It’s not because of a lack of things to say, and it’s definitely not because I don’t want to write — though I’m finding time to write a little scarce at the moment.I firmly believe that I am good enough to make writing into a solid side gig, particularly when I’m devoting enough time to it.

I’ve never been one for typing lengthy missives on a mobile device. Oh, I can crank out an email or two when needed — though I desperately miss the Blackberry’s physical keyboard for that. But I’m not the type of person who will sit and whisk my thumbs across my screen in order to tap out a blog post or to get something up here.

I firmly believe that I am good enough to make writing into a solid side gig, particularly when I’m devoting enough time to it. But I’m finding that the time I have isn’t always where or when I have access to a computer with a keyboard.
