Downsizing the Downtrodden

75 Views

When companies talk about having to tighten their fiscal belts why are the ‘little people’ always the first to go?  Why don’t they cut the fat at the top of the corporation ladder that I know for a fact isn’t doing anything but floating around sucking up the good air.

No the first ones to go are almost always the small guy.  Housekeepers, cooks, secretaries, etc.  What will the bigwigs do without someone to clean up after all their dirty little jobs, hmm?  I’ll tell you, they’ll  kick and scream about it.  Too late, those people have more than likely gone onto find higher paying jobs with better benefits.   So long air sucker!

However, there’s an alarming trend in society today to think of workers in low skilled positions as dispensible. It’s gotten to the point so that the workers think of these jobs as disposable too. 

Money is important, I’ll grant you that.  We buy wonderful things with it; food, shelter, air conditioning.  However I don’t agree to sacrificing many jobs in the hopes of saving an all mighty dollar while giving themselves yearly raises so they can drive to the country club in style every week.  That just tee’s me off.

Interview with Celia Breslin 
We are thrilled to have author Celia Breslin with us today. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to give readers a chance to get to know more about you and your work. While some questions may be traditional, you’d be surprised at what readers connect to. Sometimes the simplest ‘I can relate to that’ grabs their interest where nothing else can. So, let us begin.

Can you share a little something about Celia Breslin that’s not mentioned in your bio on your website?

Sure! I play piano, and I like to sing. Used to be a soprano, but now I’m more of an alto. I also like to work out every day. Weight training, cardio, walking, etc.

How long have you been writing?

I’ve been writing stories since I was a kid. Mostly short stories back then. After college, I moved on to novella and novel-length work. I still do write the occasional short story, including The Night Hag, a dark modern fairy tale I wrote for Halloween 2023 (free to my newsletter subscribers).

What have you found most challenging about it?

I have more story ideas than I have time, LOL. 

What does writing do for you? Is it fun, cathartic, do you get emotional?

Writing is definitely fun and fulfilling. I do get emotional about my stories, especially when I’m throwing all sorts of problems at my main characters. But then I get to cheer them on when they overcome the obstacles and achieve their HEA.

Describe what your writing routine looks like. Are you disciplined with a strict schedule, or do you have to be in the mood?

I try to write regardless of my mood. I like to stay connected to my WiP, so daily writing is a must.  I’m also an editor, so my typical workday includes both activities. Oh, and my daily workout!

Did you go into writing thinking that it would be a hobby or a job?

It started as a hobby when I was a kid/teen. Fast forward to adulthood…when my daughter was born, I thought, why not publish my stories? So, I started submitting my vampire series to publishers, and it was picked up. Writing has been one my job hats ever since.

Let's move on and give readers some insight into your personal life.

 What are your pet peeves?  Being late, drivers...
