I think I will make a great spinster someday. Personally, I am not in a rush to get married or to be in a "relationship" or whatever. (Note: I'm not trying to sound cynical. For those of you married or in relationships, I am happy for you!) The truth is, I love God, my family, my cat, and I love writing. And freedom. I can just see myself ending up like Emily Dickinson or Jane Austen--unmarried women writers. Okay, so they both had a disappointing love life. Thankfully, that is not my case. I don't have any love life. ;-)
SO...as I was saying, I can see myself living in a little house, filled with cats, visited by my nieces and nephews, and writing stories like a maniac. Today I read an entry in Gennifer Albin's blog about motherhood mixed with writing. Let me just say, this woman is amazing! I don't know how she manages to do all that. I certainly couldn't. But basically, that list of stuff sealed the deal for me. Yup, being single is just dandy. At least for a while.
What's your take on writing and relationships? If you're married or in a relationship, is it harder to write? If you're single, do you like it that way or not?
