What occupation does Phoebe have in your story?
I think she’s like a neurosurgeon, if memory serves. I remember doing a lot of research about residencies and how much school it takes and money and all that. Phoebe was in the process of completing her residency in the story and it’s a big part of why she’s not at home a whole lot and the kids have a healthier than average relationship with their grandparents. Gerald’s kind of the main parent.
It’s just that Phoebe has this obvious need to be intellectually stimulated and frequently challenged, so I thought brain surgery would be a good fit for her just ‘cause... it’s the kind of profession that you never stop learning in. I also see her creating music on the side, singing and playing instruments. Maybe even releasing a song or two. Just to round out her life nicely. :) I like my Phoebes happy.
