    Isn’t that why we have blogs, they are just are draft books aren’t they?
    LOVE the Car­toon, espe­cially the copy­right tag as I am Hugh too.

    Back when I was a punk, we did our day­drea­ming at Blimpie’s. But the situa­tion is timeless!

    I’d rather my blog be a draft of the life I’d pre­fer to have than the novel I’ll never publish.

    This is genius. Though the second sen­tence I iden­tify with much less.

    Please don’t publish crap like this and chea­pen the pro­fes­sion of wri­ting, which some of us actual nove­lists actually perform.

    Too late! Heh.

    Please don’t publish witty or iro­nic mate­rial again, as real nove­lists like myself have nothing to do with such crap. Next time, sti­fle any crea­tive expres­sion you may have to pro­tect the sac­red circle of “real writers.”

    Please don’t take your job so seriously. Every so often peo­ple should be able to laugh at the good and the bad of their pro­fes­sion no mat­ter what you do.
