Shut Up & Write

You love it. You loathe it.
Either way, you can't help yourself. You are one of us.
(You are also a masochist. But that's OK.)

Struggling (and more often fighting) writer by trade, and office monkey when I need to pay my bills. It's an enviable life.
I know, you're probably a little jealous now.
It's perfectly understandable.

Blog Shame

See, I knew it. That was a sucky post. Fish, for chrissakes. Fish!

My apologies. What a waste of online space. (Does such a thing even exist?)

I went to a barbecue at my friend's place last night, and stupidly owned up to having a blog. I was the recipient of great mocking. "YOU? You have a blog?!" Hysterical laughter. Pointing. They started warming the tar and madly tearing feathers off chickens.

The sucky thing about being a writer is that you tend to pal around with other writers. It can be a rather elitist little group. Sometimes I wish my friends were all accountants.

Blog Shame: (noun)
To be ashamed of or embarrassed by ownership of blog. Unwillingness to admit to posting on blog, or partaking in blog activities.
