I just want to write
Why can't I get paid to write? It's on my mind when I wake in the morn, and the last thought that crosses my heart as I drift to sleep. I feel it every minute, the love of words and the only safe way to expose myself - so why can't I get paid to write? I entertain everybody I know, my kids to coworkers to family - all laugh and cry at my antics but I when I pen them the well runs dry and I am left to work a soulless job that pays the bills but leaves me little time to share what I have to give...I just want to write...

"... keep doing it until you die or it dies within you..." old Buk hit that one on the head for a home run with bases loaded.
Good vid, JT. Thx for sharing.

I hit writer's block in the worst way over the weekend - then I got back on track with a query letter today - I think - we will see what agents think, I suppose.

Thanks Cecil. I have never read much Bukowski. I never even heard of him before litkicks.
break a leg butterfly
what ever agents think
write on
I sometimes wish for writers block
i have come to appreciate those quiet times
when I notice the world around more
if you can find something you enjoy and make it living from it that is about the best you can hope for in this world, happiness in love and work is the holy grail of existence the wise ones say, to live a life of your own
