5. LOL, no problem
I just sometimes find fun in misspelled words. Bizarre sense of humor and all. Good luck with your play, and have fun working on it.

7. When "attempt" and "work" are used in the same sentence...
...none will actually get done.

8. ouch, really don't worry the swelling will be gone by tomorrow.

To clarify:

I consider work especially in regards to an art or craft as an ongoing process. As an artist, if I can get close or 'attempt' to convey what is in my mind, out into a forum and into your brain, I've done my job.

Feel better?

DU is the only thing keeping me from getting my work done thanks.

on edit:

My procrastinating and my addiction to DU is what is keeping me from getting my work done.

12. OK, whatever excuse you want to make.
Uh, and I am a writer also. So spare me the artiste veneer. LOL. The best way to overcome a blank page is to fill it up. The best way to begin, is to begin.

16. Right, thanks teach.
If you feel better telling me things I already know as a writer so you can assert yourself, that's cool. I was just hoping to say good bye to some of my peeps.

36. Just ignore the folks with no sense of humor, Cass
Edited on Mon May-16-05 02:13 PM by Susang
My husband's a writer too, as are a large number of our friends. The one thing I've noticed from my expose to all of them is that there is no one way to get your writing done and that you should never listen to someone who claims to know what's the right way for you.

BTW, my husband gets his best work done in the shower. Yet I've never heard him tell another writer to "stop procrastinating and take a shower". ;-)

Good luck with the play! :hi:

leading to failure thing I have going on.

13. I hear ya about the fear thing
It's completely irrational, but undeniable all the same.

28. No problemo
He is Dario Fo, the Italian playwright, actor, activist and the only one of his ilk to win the Nobel prize for literature. He is most wonderful, unlike my procrastinating.

32. He's the man
He does this routine, where he travels to different countries and makes fun off their culture and idioms without speaking the (visiting country's) language. He does it all with sound and gesture. It's the funniest thing of life. If you can, check out some of his plays, they're incredible.

I'm about to turn into a pumpkin! Take care.
