Need a little writerly abuse?
Wouldn’t it be great if writers’ problems came like this?
Battling writers’ block?
I don’t care how long you’ve been working on it, IS.IT.EDITED?
“Yeah, I guess. I’m just going to send what I have so far...”
Rethink that move
But my friend and I swapped Manuscripts...how can it still be crap?
At first you’ll be all...
But after a while you can’t help but take everything personally
Plots riddled with holes are like bodies riddled with holes;
easy to bury but noticeable if you don’t
Don’t forget who is working for whom, i.e. don’t fuck with your editors/agents/publishers...etc.
Trying to do the dance to get yourself marketed, even though you are dying to go home and cry
Describing your life/style to strangers
Badgering reviews out of people
Coffee shop writer’s meet-ups
Taking an edit suggestion that pisses off your fan base...
Not wanting to disappoint your readers, but stoked the edit worked
When a character strays from their own character
Or if they change their name to Luna ;) |
Maybe I can just write a lot, then die. My books will be famous and I won’t have to deal with people...
Now that you know writing is some serious shit...
I mean it, close your browser and write!
