Eva’s Byte #240: The Fezziwig Identity
* In a culture of workaholism, how do you embrace the Fezziwig Identity of merrymaking during the holiday season?
Oh, by gosh, by golly
It’s time for mistletoe and holly—soon!
After Thanksgiving, 27 days remain until Christmas!
An Indie author, I rarely cut myself slack from the peculiarities of honing my craft: drafting a WIP; blogging; writing an occasional memoir; creating ad posts for social media; editing; reading; writing book reviews.
It goes without saying, my toils and troubles are not motivated by far-fetched fame and fortune. Not when my eBooks are priced from $2.99 - $3.99!
Writing and all of its satellite components provide a joie de vivre!
By golly, it’s the Indie’s Fezziwig Identity!
Fezziwig—Scrooge’s business mentor in A Christmas Carol (1843 novella created by Charles Dickens)—contrasts sharply with his apprentice’s miserly and coldhearted ways.
Fezziwig, “It's not just for money alone that one spends a lifetime building up a business…. It's to preserve a way of life that one knew and loved.”
Like Fezziwig, in the days leading up to the holiday, I’ve slacked off a bit by carving time to make merry. I’ve been decking the halls of my home with decorations. I’m indulging in sappy Hallmark Christmas movies.
The Fezziwig Identity empowers workaholics to embrace merrymaking during the Christmas season without it costing a fortune.
