Senseless Tuesday Sarcasm : Writing
Welcome to 3am, a time of night I like to call…
…Writer’s Prison.
I hear that writing is supposed to be hard. If it’s so hard, why do I have 18 books in my Level of Hell series, 3 in the Immortal Sands series, and 2 that are stand-alone?
Writing is NOT the problem.
Three of my books are published. You read that right.
3
As in 3/23rds of my books are published.
0.1304347826086957%
1/7.666666666666667.
I wrote the first draft of book #23 last month — in 20 days. I can’t do NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) in November; it’s hell month for my job. So sue me for writing my latest novel in July when I’m only working 4 days a week and not 7.
What is the hardest part of the writing process?
EDITING!
If you’re rich and famous, a publishing company will dump anything on the public including, “I have 12 different kinds of poop.”
Not that I’ve seen a book with that title, but given the C#@p that’s out there, several should have used it.
Am I jealous? No. I prefer to think of the rage inside as “other envied.”
Really — if a person can be called “other abled” instead of saying outright, “This person is a couch potato,” I can be “other envied.”
Rub it in much? Cheers,H

The fact that only 3 have actually been edited and published is like ALMOST jumping over the grand canyon. Very frustrating.
But…in a way it’s humorous, too.

It’s fun to write out the rage in a way that makes people laugh. When you hold it inside, it boils over — but humor helps to put it in perspective. 🙂

I had to resign up for your blog. It seems to be happening a lot lately. . .but glad to see you. Good luck with the editing.

Happy to see you return.
I don’t know what is going on with wordpress. Weird things are happening, and none of it seems good.

This is the difference between us. As a middle-aged man, I call 3 a.m. “Waking Up To Pee.”

I call it the over-50 bladder. It doesn’t get any better as you age. 🙂

I’m already over 50. Should I just start pricing catheters now?

No, but there are some depends products that don’t look too bulky under your jeans. 🙂
Fortunately, I’m not at that stage….yet.
