boredom

referrals from friends

boys on the ottawa; ( my own submarine.)
30 yrs later yes, someone has gotten paid for this. It wasn't me.

frantic writing, then polish. 2000 wds a day quota., a novel every 3 months or so.
10,000 wds a week.
write, polish, rewrite tomorrow, weekly grind, half-done review, and rewrite after finished.
plus readers pointing out what I manage to miss. (thank various gods for them)

sf novel, the elders, 2d grade. beat captain kangaroo all to bits

COMICS. (my bathroom has TWO libraries.)

stained.

ott.ont.can (Love seaports. van, calgary, edmonton are also places I've spent years in)
lots of action reserved for elites here in canada's capital
gov't, universities, industry, and it's the 2'd largest publisher in canada.

You need a rec or you get nowhere. Every proposal I've ever made here has been handed over to favourites to do;
In all areas. Movie ideas re-appear; Story subs for the newspapers get done by flakes.
Cartooning for the federal gov't pubs; e-works vanish.
all ideas evaporate, get their serial numbers filed off and assigned to the connected.
back in the day lost subs hit 100% from minor eds, too.

You NEED recommendations or you're dead before you even start. (other writers, eds, blue-bloods)
you're connected, on the best seller list or insane to do this.

1st grade

evolution

Do enough art-work and my eyes tingle and zap; writing is mostly the fun of figuring out what happens next.
(I do love a good story; laughing while writing happens fairly often) if you don't fall over laughing at least once reading this, the book is a failure.

Feedback and in an almost mystic way.
( they drive me crazy, actually)
