Monday morning writing joke: bird’s eye view

I'm a writer and I don't get no respect

A bird’s eye view of literature.

I’m a writer and I don’t get no respect. Just the other day my mother-in-law came to visit. She asked for one of my stories and I gave her the latest one I had written. The next day I had to go and visit her. I asked her how she liked the story. She said it wasn’t long enough.

“Long enough?” I asked.

“Yeah,” she said. “There weren’t enough pages to line the bottom of my parrot’s cage. He’s not happy.”
