I’m too freaking realistic. What kind of job do you give a character that allows them the ability to galavant around and solve weird the shit I’m throwing at her? Every time I think of something, it just seems stupid. I keep thinking, yeah, she’d be fired for taking time off. Or How do you run a business if you’re running around all the time? It just seems unrealistic to me. Ok, make her wealthy. I can’t relate.

I can write technical stuff, non-fiction…no problem. Creative writing is a challenge.

You could have get the money from a mysterious source. One day she just gets a briefcase full of money and takes off on the adventure, maybe you payoff who gave her the money, maybe it stays a mystery. Don’t let ‘realism’ get in the way of a good story.
