There are certain advantages for any fledging writer once he or she retires. Once relieved from the responsibilities of going into work everyday, such a writer is free to pursue his craft without the unfortunate burden of having a job that not only does not involve any actual writing but actively limits the opportunity to write. The following is a list of possible advantages.

1. You can actually write without getting dressed.

2. You can stay in bed all day thinking of plot lines.

3. You don’t have to hide your computer screen from prying supervisors.

4. You can tell people you have written a book without risking ridicule from disdainful work colleagues. Can actually identify oneself as an author without prompting big laughs from work colleagues.

5. No deadlines.

6. Unlikely to confuse own fiction from work related fiction.

7. Can place self into a story without worrying about career consequences.

8. Can enjoy a nap at anytime during the day.

9. No redrafting of written work by annoying supervisors.
