I'm not sure precisely why, but I've been riding the Mood Train ride at Jamie Land hard these past few days. Currently, I seem to be okay, so we'll try to do something with that.
Food, drink, and meds acquired. Writing now begins.

They are the people who want to be writers, who want to have the mark of "written a book" on their internal resume, not the people who want to write books for fulfillment or NEED to write books for their psyche.
It's a subtle but critical difference in understanding these people.

That’s the other thing that baffles me about AI and creative writing, actually.
The work IS the joy for me. I don’t want to be able to snap my fingers and have a completed “product.” I want to be transformed by the process. I’m an author but I do this because I enjoy the rigor of being a writer.

In terms of process, I enjoy writing but revising????? Oh, that’s my real kink. A second or third draft???? A fourth???? Making tweaks on my desktop AND my phone???? *moans* I’m a WHORE for revision.

Autumn presents an excellent point. I know who I want biting at my neck, and it sure as heck ain't capitalism.
P.S. If you are vampire-girlfriend-shaped, or even girlfriend-shaped, applications are available at the help desk.

Might as well get you a vampire girlfriend because, at the end of the day, who do you REALLY want draining you of blood? A monster girlfriend or capitalism?

I've started to realize that I am amazingly praise motivated. Yes. My primary motivation is doing what I want, but there's still so much of my happiness that requires the praise of others.

Self-promo Sunday continues! Prepare for book 2, FIGHT THE POWERS, by nabbing book 1 of this satirical sapphic superhero romance! With *real* lesbians!
Dr. Peril is a melodramatic mad scientist out to rule the world. Her nemesis, Diamond, is a kindly Midwestern gal who can lift a truck.

If you're a new indie author getting started, I have two things to tell you.
1. You will likely sell more ebooks than print. My werewolf ebooks have massively outsold print.
2. Print books are still worth setting up for your readers who will want them. Invest that time if you can.

Ditto this. Being a writer is a marathon passion project, so you need to love writing, not live the *idea* of being a writer.
as a writer, you meet two types of hopefuls: people who like to write and people who want to be writers. It's the former who actually succeed – you need to love this, not as a means to an end but for itself entirely.
Sometimes I wonder if our many years of jokes about writers hating writing and doing anything but writing, etc, have convinced people that the writing part is the hurdle and the goal is just to have a thing in hand. But I am here to tell you: the writing is the best part. The act is the thing.
