MEH-BE, BABY
Ever Get So Slammed With Self-Interest Writing Projects …
You Start Swearing At The Alphabet? Can’t Stand The Sight Of A Serif, Let Alone A Font Claiming To Be A Sans Serif?
“Cursing Words Over Two Syllables?”
… Mock Grammar Until It Dangles Like An Infinitive Or Interrupts Like A Twitchy Semi-Colon When A Damn Period Would Do The Trick?
I’M OVER WRITTEN
And, Under Expressed … Is That A Thing … Unlike Dubya Blocked?
I’ve Got More Messed Up Words-In-The-Flow …
“… On A Pile Of Pages That Don’t Know Where The Hell-To-Go.”
And, Please Don’t Get Me Started On Dotting My “i’s” – Or – Crossing My “t’s”
A BREATHER NOT A BREAK
What I’m Taking …
I’m Lousy At Time-Outs. Giving or Taking.
“Also, My Important Work Load At The ‘Diva Day Care / Adult Diaper Changing Kiosk’ Is A Full-Time Occupation With No Signs Of Slowing In This Bullish Market Of Entitled Discontent.”
… I’m Up To My Chin In Polishing Tiaras – End – Rough Draft Of My Valentine To Co-Workers. ♥
OK, THAT ONE MADE ME LAUGH
And, Finally, I’m Giving Myself A Well Deserved Pay Raise … You Heard It Right The First Time … A Paid Assignment Starting Now:
“I’m Paying Myself A Small Stipend – $3 A Day – To Write … Here It Comes … Just So I Can Call Myself A Professional Writer?”
Wow, The Righteous, Smug Cojone’s On The Talent-Deflective Hack!
… It’s Not Cheating. It’s Resourceful. It’s How They Do It In Luxembourg.
FIDUCIARY IMPLICATIONS
I’m Pretty Sure Self Love Qualifies As Smarty-Pants Tax Write-Off …
To Help Subsidize My Dependency On A Daily Doppio Scoop Of Heavenly Hash.
Ice Cream, Darlings.

Interesting post, Michael. When can a Writer call themselves a Writer, let alone a Professional Writer? I think you deserve a raise.🙂

Erica/Erika, I believe, one must call themselves a Writer to be a Writer. Not a moment before. The old adage is true: a writer writes, a dancer dances, a singer sings … We’re all writers as long as we writer. The only problem with giving myself a raise is I know its coming out of my pocket. Thank you. 🙂

Now if the tiaras could be inserted in the adult diapers and get all poky and uncomfortable, perhaps they’d become a lot less appealing.

I think you need to find a better agent; and a semicolon is always my choice of punctuation when in doubt… that or an ellipsis…

Agreed, but I have a fool for an agent (me) 😊. I’m a habitual abuser of the long hyphen (em dash). I respect the semicolon but I’ve entered into a un-winnable war of dimwits with another blogger who will read this shortly and start into me again over this innocuous (;) 🙏

I remember from a previous post your love of the em dash; since I don’t know how to type one, I just use the regular dash, hopefully it conveys the same meaning…
good luck in your battle…
