Wow, it's been months since my last post...you'd think i didnt write or aspire to write or something. Actually, i have another blog. And, you know what, i think i have issues with calling myself a "writer." Like suddenly, i'm expected to write really well because i'm a writer. And well, i find that i can't. Or i dont. I just write. I cant account for how well i do, and if pressed, i would say not well, naturally. Does anyone write really well naturally? Well, i can think of a few people who write well and i dont write like them, so obviously, ipso facto, i dont write well.
So please permit me to write suckitudinously. I cant take the pressure to perform!

Everyone can write, but can everyone be a published writer? And does being a "published writer" make a writer good?
What I'm trying to say is, don't get down on yourself. You can get down on your writing, you can be unhappy with your writing, but only if it means you are going to try harder as a writer.
Suckitudinously? Trust me, only a real writer could come up with a word like that!
I understand what you mean, though. Here I am, working on a screenplay and if anyone asked I would NEVER think to call myself a writer. I'd tell them about my dumb-ass day job.
By the way, thanks for visiting my blog and linking to me on yours!
