An Introduction and Invitation

So, here's to new blogs, new leaves and the crushing of old and not-so-good habits. I stopped writing a couple of years ago... well, almost. The hardest thing about being forced to step back from everything you've got on the go, is working out what you want to pick up again, and how much you can. The next hardest thing is changing the habits you've developed to fill the gap in the meantime. Or possibly choosing which of the dropped balls needs picking up first, and which you can bear to stack carefully in the queue on your shelf.

I have always wanted to write, and then I developed the idea that maybe one day I could make a living from my writing. Now I have a full-time job and career, and a much better idea of the path I need to take in order to become a freelancer.

Why CM Simpson? This is one of the names I've written under for my roleplaying endeavours, and it is the name I choose to use for my fantasy, science fiction, and young adult fiction as well. I use another name for my romances.

This blog is to chronicle how my freelancing journey goes - as well as to share my love of writing, roleplaying, and other shiny things that catch my eye, and snare a place in my dreams.

Join me.

No, seriously, join me. I'm petrified and would rather not travel alone.
