As novas oportunidades tal como José Sócrates as vê

"Why don't you simply change your job?"
"What do you mean simply? Stop being writer?"
"Why not! Reinvent yourself", advised my helpful therapist.
I followed his advice. I got a job as a waitress in a Portuguese restaurant. One of my co-workers sometimes recites Pessoa to me after work, over a glass of wine, but that is pretty much my only contact with literature. I no longer have literary nightmares. I dream pleasant, refreshing dreams.
