WHen I have something I have to write I say MY ARTICLE in Terry Griffith tones. Even before this examiner business. It's funny that it's all kind of become valid now, so she's kind of my icon. . .
You're brave. I think I'm at a point in my life when I just don't want to deal with criticism, anymore. I probably wouldn't even attempt to "go legit".
well, i kind of backed off for a while because i felt the same, (and i seemed to keep getting pregnant) and i've found out that writing about films and tv is much more fun, safe, and actually positive than writing anything about birth or parenting---the ridiculous drama that comes with that is enough to drive anyone to sterilization. . . .
I dunno...I guess there are still some things I wouldn't mind doing. Like, I'd write video game reviews or something. You don't have to worry about sounding smart or pretending to love something just because it's artsy.
Good review, but what does it have to do with Just One of the Guys?!

ReplyDeleteand I did use my bit on JUST ONE OF THE GUYS for a writing sample, so I can credit Terry for getting me the gig, too.
ReplyDeleteMy article. Nice. That's funny.

So you skipped "too legit," and just went with "to quit."
