Doing a Hex..

[Steve H]

After years of mediocre job satisfaction the opportunity to go part time has presented itself at my current place of work and I’ve finally decided that I’m gonna go part time and attempt to pursue something that I actually take pleasure in. I’ve always enjoyed writing and after some positive feedback from a few magazine’s and people that I respect in the field I believe that now is the time to give it a crack.

Thankfully things have fallen into place and although it’s a bit of a risk I can cover my (and the wife’s) arse financially whilst improving my quality of life when it comes to the day to day grind of employment.

It’s a nervy feeling jacking ½ your job in when you’ve had financial stability for such a long time however I‘m really looking forward to the challenge. I can already sense the weight of anxiety that comes with doing a job that doesn’t fulfil my aspirations disappearing and being replaced with a feeling of exhilaration and anticipation of what might come with a new career

Excellent. Good on ya.

The standard of writing in the BCF celeb profiles thread was superb, let us know what you are writing for. If it's as good as that I might even part with some readies.

I was hoping to see you riding a minimoto in a silver thong.

Not surprising to be honest Steve, You write a thousand times better than those monkeys for the tabloid "papers".

Keep us posted mate! Oh and Good luck, though i'm sure you don't need it.

Cool! Good stuff, do you know what you're going to write about? Do you want to write about anything in particular?

Are you going to be a journalist (features stuff would be egg and milk with your style Steve) or just writing articles or books?

Good luck.

Thanks for the positive comments guys - much appreciated.

As for what particular field I intend to attempt, I've got no particular preference, I just want to write although I'd love to do something sport related on the journalism front - Luck's gonna play a major part obviously but I don't wanna look back in 5 years time (when I'll have broken the 40 barrier!) and think 'I wish I'd have given it a fair crack of the whip'

As someone prophetically once sang (Robbie Williams or Keith Harris and Orville - I can't remember which) 'No Regrets'
