Sometimes I feel lower than a defeated politician....

Sometimes I feel lower than a defeated politician….

Next to the defeated politician, the writer is the most vocal and inventive griper on earth. He sees hardship and unfairness wherever he looks. His agent doesn’t love him (enough). The blank sheet of paper is an enemy. The publisher is a cheapskate. The critic is a philistine. The public doesn’t understand. His wife doesn’t understand him. The bartender doesn’t understand him. –PETER MAYLE

    Love it. Non-writers don’t get it. Writers do. About writing, that is.

      Thank you for the comment. There are other entries in the “No Respect” series, if that’s what it could be called. All posted for a little humor and fun.
