Law was never my first choice, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do.
Is it possible to work as a legal editor (not for a newspaper, but for a legal publishing company), which would involve writing, but not the king that you would do if you had the choice?
There comes a point when you get sick of making other people's problems your own, even if you are paid for it. In New South Wales, we have several members of the Bar - not to mention solicitors (US = attorney-at-law) - who are well past retirement age but still practising. I can't think of too many things worse.
All in all, it's probably better to take the new position if offered.
