You should be a writer. G

I wish I could get paid for this kind of thing right here, really.
Writing
random muses about things is about all I'm good for. I hope it makes for
good entertainment, but it's not book fodder. I haven't found a market
for my style of writing.

I'm working on a book now, and I may get it published, but I'd rather be
known for something besides computer books. Even presuming I do get it
published without resorting to paying a vanity publisher.

Do you write because you have to or do you write hoping to make a buck? If
it's a compulsion go with it. If it's not then you will probably find it
frustrating.

I added it up a while back and I've put something over a million words on
USENET over the past 15 years or so. If I had written just one marketable
novel in that time . . .
