I will check that book out, thanks!

I'm not concerned with getting rich, I just want to be able to afford to support myself, and potentially a kid one day (though, that's increasingly unlikely). I'm a full time caregiver for my mom, she's disabled, and bedridden. So working from home is pretty important. I don't have any kind of, like, ivory tower aspirations or anything. I don't imagine I'm going to change the world, or be some oft-quoted academic. Lol. I'd love to teach Anthropology and go on digs some day, but I'm getting an English (creative writing) degree, and I'd love to just have a relatively stable income teach some kids about story structure one day.
