Anyone can write? Right? Wrong!
Why is it that some people think that writing is simple? It's a craft, dammit!

Comments like "Ah, I can write. I wrote short stories in high school" really pisses me off.

I'm a copywriter by profession. Someone actually said "You don't have much work do you? All you do is copy and paste from a book"

Man, what is this world coming to?
