Revising




Writing takes work.  A lot of work.  Some people, I think, believe that writing is as simple as thinking a thought and getting it down on paper.  Well, that's a part of it.  But making it coherent and appealing, at least in a short story or a novel, isn't as easy as writing a quick blog post.

Just wanted to put that out there.

Blood, sweat and tears, baby, and a whole lotta ink.  (click on the image above for a larger photo)

  2. You said it! and people need to start respecting that and PAYING for writing! Everyone, especially those who work hard, deserve to make a living. And a chance, everyone derseves to have a chance at making a living at working hard, aka writing or whatever makes someone's heart beat. I often feel your frustration...

  3. The frustration today feels pretty real, as my bank account somehow has gotten DANGEROUSLY low. Ouch! But I'm still happy to have been blessed with being a creative person, no matter the relative poverty I'm in!! Good luck with your writing!!
