it can't be that easy, can it??

I decided to get up my ass yesterday and actually look into "writing for a living" so, I googled those exact words and start reading about tips and ideas on how to become a writer and what they all said is basically the same thing "write, write, write" Well, I do that already and been doing that so, I guess I'm off to a good start. I also read that you should start writing for a local newspaper or magazine to gain experience and perhaps make future contacts that will help you get you started in the writing business so, I decide to research on that. I found a hiring ad for a new local magazine that will premiere in 2009; it's about local events, art, politics, fashion, hispanic interests etc. So, after talking myself into it I decide to send in my pathetic little resume which has no previous writing experience. I also followed the requirements of the ad and sent in three of my writing samples which were just regular blogs of mine plus half a chapter of the book I'm working on. I attached it and wrote a little about me in the email explaining how I'm a passionate writer with a vivid imagination and how although I have no professional writing experience I have been writing for a long time. I took a leap of faith and pressed "Send"; two hours later I get an email back from the assistand editor saying that she found my resume "interesting" in a good way and she would love for me to go by and interview. ARE YOU SERIOUS??
My heart started pounding in excitement and pride; but then reality hit me. Okay, this is in Miami Beach not too close to my house; what if they want me to work there and not on my own time? What about Abbey and her daycare I love so much? Would would I wear? Etc. I decided to forget about all these things and focus on the fact that this might be my first step to "writing for a living" I mean, I don't know if they'll pay me to write since I have no experience and the magazine is not out yet, I don't know if they'll allow me to write on my own time and then email them my articles; I don't know anything. I will leave this thoughts aside and I will go in there with the best attitude and I will be honest with them about what I can and can't do and go from there. This proves that sometimes all you really have to do is get up your ass and take a leap of faith in order to get things started, I'm thankful and cannot wait.
