I’m Officially a Full-Time Author Now. ONLY a Full-Time Author.
I’m done, done, done, done, dooooooone with the day job.
So now I get to be a full-time author. Technically, I’ve always been a full-time author. I usually put in about 60 hours a week in writing or other writer-oriented activities. That’s full-time, right? Well now I get to do that without the additional 40 hour day job. Yay! I can get a life. And be able to write whenever I want.
So here is the song I chose to celebrate my last day as an employee.
Happy Friday!
I’m off to clean my house. For reals. I never have time to clean my house.
Update: Guess what just came in the mail? My passport! I’m going on a cruise in January. So excited! Yes, I do think it’s a sign that my passport arrived on my last day of work.

















Congrats, Olivia!! Love that song!
Good for you, Olivia. You deserve it! Keep doing what you love…and I can’t wait to see what else your clever mind can come up with!!
That’s wonderful!!! Love your books and looking forward to many more!!!!!!
So happy for you!!! I love your stuff and hope you’ll be able to crank out some more of the good stuff!! What a wonderful Christmas present to yourself!
Congratulations!!
Congratulations!!! I am so happy for you to be able to be a full time writer without having to have a day job too! (That’s the dream of all writers isn’t it? For our jobs to be “writers” and not being a writer AND something else?! At least, it’s my dream!
) Can’t wait to read more of your books!
Congrats! I am loving your books, so the more time you get to spend on them the better for me…..and my husband

Congrats! Olivia. Boy, do I wish I could do the same. I’m a long way from that though. My debut novella comes out in Jan. I’ve got a few more to go before I can get to the point of dumping the day job. But I hope to one day follow in your footsteps….
Wow that’s cool. Congrats! And from now on: happy writing whenever and wherever you like it.
I wish you all the best. You are amazing. I am so glad you are able to live your dream. Who can guess what naughty things you will dream up now that you don’t have to worry about that 40 hours a week at a day job
Looking forward to all you write……
Congrats and let that freak flag fly!!
