Battle Scars

Best damn advice I've read about those rejection slips yet!

I had visions of Braveheart racing through my brain when I read this - you can write or die peacefully in your bed wishing you'd been brave enough to wield that keyboard into battle.

Oh yeah, it's Chuck Wendig, so the usual language cautions apply :)

Mr. Wendig's rant was thoroughly entertaining and it's nice to find out that other people are have the same problem.

Dammit! that should read "are having the same problem."

Woo! Thanks for the link! And glad you liked it, Oscar.

Is it wrong that I'm coming to take some small pride in the fact that my links come with a language warning?

Salty verbiage, ahead!

He does it so well, doesn't he, Oscar? And misery so does love company!

Nah, it isn't wrong, Chuck. I only put the warning on because I have quite a few cozy writers who drop by. No point sending them where they don't want to go :) but your posts are too good not to share.
