Good morning,ψ.


It’s in Golden Week.


However I have work day after day.


Because writing isn’t source of revenue.


I have three jobs.


First, it’s a freelance writer.


Second, part-time lecturer in my special field.


And part-time hotel employee.


It’s busy time for a hotel in holidays.


I coordinate my second jobs with season.


Two jobs differ busy time.


So my income never stops.



ーーー



Good morning, ミューさん。


そして、かなりよく書けています。内容もはっきり伝わります。

では、いつもの形でいきますね。


■ Feedback (English)

Your writing is clear and structured well.


I can understand your situation easily, and the logic flows nicely.

A few points to improve:

  • Articles (“a”, “the”) are sometimes missing

  • Some phrases sound slightly unnatural (e.g. “second jobs”)

  • Verb tense and phrasing can be smoothed

But overall, this is solid and communicative English.


■ Polished Version (Natural / Literary)

Here is a more natural version while keeping your tone:

Good morning, ψ.

It’s Golden Week, but I have to work every day


because writing is not yet a stable source of income.

I have three jobs.

First, I work as a freelance writer.


Second, I am a part-time lecturer in my field of expertise.


And third, I work part-time at a hotel.

Holidays are a busy season for hotels,


so my schedule there becomes quite intense.

I adjust my lecturing work depending on the season.

The busy periods of these jobs are different,


so my income never completely stops.


■ Notes (important points)

① “second jobs” → “my lecturing work”

“second job” sounds like a fixed hierarchy.


Here you mean “another job,” so:

  • my lecturing work

  • my other job

are more natural.


② “special field” → “field of expertise”

More natural phrasing:

  • my field of expertise

  • my specialty


③ “busy time for a hotel in holidays”

Better flow:

  • Holidays are a busy season for hotels


■ Stylistic Comment

This is interesting, ミューさん。

Your English writing already reflects your thinking style:

  • structured

  • layered

  • quietly analytical

It matches your creative voice.


If you want, next step we can:

  • make it more literary / essay-like

  • or adapt it for note / website / international audience

Just tell me which direction you want.
