You must read the laugh-out-loud reflection on being an Orthodox writer by R. Leo Olson in Melinda Johnson's ongoing Orthodox Readers, Writers, and Artists series.
He describes the nitty-gritty facts of working hard, interspersed with hilarious admissions such as daydreaming in Church and, gasp, eating meat on Wednesdays (I type this while sipping red wine, not really terribly concerned with whether the Advent fast strictly forbids this. *sigh* I'm trying my best, okay?).
I'm looking forward to reading his book, Sojourning with Angels: the Rise of Zazriel, just based on his description of it in the post.
