Writing, the hit or miss profession?

I just have to share the article I read in the New York Times.

Makes you think, doesn't it? Shows that there's really no rhyme nor reason to the publishing industry. It is all dependent on the whims of the buying public. A good book doesn't mean a bestseller and a lousy book could top the charts.

Arrghh!!

What made me think this was a good idea? Why didn't anyone talk me out of this??

Oh. Right. Now I remember.

No one's ever been able to talk me out of anything. And I write because, welll, I can't not write. I've tried. It doesn't work.

*Sigh* All right, then. On with the week.

Hope you have a wonderful Monday!
