The Quitter Trilogy

This trio of posts truly is a trilogy. They are best taken together as a whole, so I hope you’ll start at Part 1 and read in order.

I wanted to take some time to debrief and share how I ended up quitting my day job this year to become a full time stay-at-home parent and author. I learned a lot, and I hope someone will find it helpful.

Part 1

How I Quit My Day Job: The Setup
Or, How I started 2020 with a stalled career, no agent, and no hope and ended it with 5 books under contract. Also the story of why quitting was more of a need than a want and how that gave me the audacity to even imagine the possibility.

Part 2

Crunching Numbers and Taking Leaps: The Money Post
The reveal of M. K. England, Secret Money Nerd, full of actual financial transparency. The story of how I actually figured out if I could afford to quit. Includes an appendix for hopeful future quitters.

Part 3

Lessons Learned and Deadlines Met. Mostly.
In which I share my full 2021 deadline schedule, what my day-to-day looks like, lessons I learned by screwing up, and ways I hope to do better.
