Writing is Not for Sissies.
Writing is hard work. When you pick up a book or read an article you are
seeing the finished product. Before it was printed, there was the
shitty, messy first draft. Then the cutting and slashing of the re
write. There was editing for grammer, puncutation, syntax. This must be
done by someone else as proofing your own work is impossible. The word
choices alone are agonzing. You must accept the changes and your
shortcomings with the language.Writing is rewriting and-- this takes time. Some people
think writing is a waste of time or a leisurely hobby. Oh yeah? Here's a
blank piece of paper and a pen, you create something beautiful and
orginal and see how hard it is.
