Writing is a very rough business. I've been bouncing between projects. I can't keep focus. I also write under another pen name. I got another rejection letter under that other pen name. I'm writing this here because there's a someone who looks at the other pen name blog. I don't want to deal with that person. She's the one who is having a contest to pay for a story idea. Which makes me sick. I have so many ideas I don't know what to work on. This person wants me to help her. I've tried to offer advice. But she's ignores it. Then turns around and asks more questions and advice. Why ask if you're not going to take the advice or at least consider what the person says? I work so hard trying to get somewhere. Even through all the rejects, heartbreaks and cruelity, I'm still trying to write. Why? Because I love writing. I love story telling. Which brings me to a point. What is the point of being a writer if you need someone else to come up with a story idea for you? I'm a writer because I want to tell that story (or many in my case). I feel I have to tell that story. I'm not in it to get rich. I wish writing could be my main career. It may or may not happen. I understand writer's block. I've had that before. But never a lack for ideas. If she's in to make money, pick another career. I vented. But I wish I could get a break in the writing business.
