Recently I've been doing a bit of ghost writing, as a way of bringing in some funds for childcare, and I was pleasently surprised by how much I enjoyed it. The piece I was writing was one tenth the size of the PhD, had a close deadline and was about an area of weaving i've always found slightly mysterious and not at all in the same vein as my thesis. All of these elements came together and provided me with a positive writing experience - a feeling i've not had for years. Anyway, I was so touched with the client's feedback, that I had to shout about it.
