Episode 24- No Subject is Taboo... Except This One

There are only two subjects which hit a truly sore spot with me. One of the biggest ones is my writing.

I know that might sound a tad egotistical and silly. However, if you have never been told not to do what you love. If no one else ever told you that your dreams are stupid and foolish and that you will never make any money. Unless people who's opinions you do not value try to tell you what they think you SHOULD be doing. And until someone with the brain of a flea and the talent of a smashed watermelon tries to critique you...

You will not understand why this is and always will be a touchy subject for me.

Contrary to what some people think writing is not an easy thing to do. You can't just pick up a pen, scribble something down and think you've written a masterpiece. It doesn't work like that--at least not for me. I refuse unless my heart is in it because anything less than that and I would just be spoon feeding you regurgitated bullshit.

I don't think that's too hard to understand. Even if I seem like I am being hard on myself I want to put out my best work. I've been doing this too long and I will not bend on that.

So to the person who today suggested that I do what I said I would not do. That I write what I said I would not write. That I compromise the one thing I have (outside of Drey of course), that's worth something to me...STFU or I will make it a point to write about you.
