ANOTHER STUPID THING (MOSTLY MALE) PEOPLE SAY TO WOMEN WRITERS

... Another stupid thing that people - mostly male people - have said to me as a (woman)writer is that I should have sex with them, and "really live," and THEN I WILL HAVE SOMETHING TO WRITE ABOUT!

Ego driven people like this get more pathetic sounding by the minute.

Why would I have to have sex at all to have something to write about?

I'm not a sex writer!

ONE OF THE STUPIDEST THINGS PEOPLE SAY TO WRITERS ....

One of the stupidest things people say to writers, when we share (and since we are expressers, we share) instead of the horridly patronizing "Thank You For Sharing," is "You should write a book."
Our every harsh experience is dismissed or deemed worth experience for the "learning value." We are often told by people that these experiences are worth it because they give us SOMETHING TO WRITE ABOUT. As if we don't already experience life as worth writing about without the angst. As if only harsh experiences are somehow illuminating or invigorating or inspiring! AS IF OBSERVATION, RESEARCH, or pure IMAGINATION are not enough!

THOSE LITTLE LIBRARY PENCILS ARE A WASTE OF MONEY!

As you may know, I blog a bit about LOS ANGELES PUBLIC LIBRARY. Recently a librarian expressed to me the waste of money that those little (about 3 1/2 inch presharpened) pencils are. NOBODY WANTS TO SHARPEN THEM! And I do, but they are good for about ONE SHARPEN before they become near impossible to put into the electric sharpener. And at that length they dig into a person's hand. They are uncomfortable to use as well.

WHY NOT JUST BUY FULL LENGTH PENCILS THAT HAVE MORE SHARPENING LIFE IN THEM? I see these sold for as low as $1.00 a six pack!

OLD SCHOOL LIBRARY BOOKS WERE A SECRET METHOD FOR

passing notes back and forth in the 8th grade. Usually these notes were simply silly but sometimes a boy and a girl would pass love notes this way. The note was put into the pocket pasted inside and all the teacher thought was going on was the return to of a library book to the person who it temporarily belonged. Passing notes in library books was especially done in English class. I suppose this was because our teacher went wild on a daily basis and sometimes didn't show up at all. The boys in my class drove her wild with various goof ball antics that proved they/we were not paying attention. I think we made our way through about 3 chapters of the book the entire year. I didn't like English classes.

It was READING that made me want to be a writer myself.
