That’s why I refuse to take anymore paid gigs for cooking or photography. It turns the love into hate, the passion into a job.

Reading about writing that made my head hurt. I used to write reports at work in a similar fashion and I would, on occasion, cry. No joke.

I know I shouldn’t be laughing, that laughing at you would be cruel, but…

I AM LAUGHING MY ASS OFF.

I could NEVER see you, Rebecca, as someone who could even sit throguh 5 pages of that bullshit.

At least you’re free now, and you’ve gotten your soul back from the devil, yes?

I feel your pain! Extremely. Pete will say sometimes how I ought to try to write this or that for someone. But what he doesn’t realize is that although I “can” pull info together like in a report and I “can” obligingly write on an assigned topic whether I like it or not, that I do not CARE TO do it. That’s not what writing is for me. That sucks the life and the fun out of it. You are lucky you came out of it alive.

I’m amazed that you didn’t slip in some subliminal swears. Maybe some really obscure nasty stuff. I can provide a list for future reference, if you’d like. Oh, that’s right, you won’t be doing this anymore. Hugs, Beth

Rebecca my dear, you and I are more alike than I thought I had the exact thing happen about 6 months ago but it was “sales copy” they wanted written. OMG! Hell on paper. Seriously. I will never ever ever ever ever ever (did I mention never?) even dream of writing for someone who I do not like the content ever again. There is not enough money in the world for that kind of torture!

Rest assured, you are a killer writer…and should get paid for it too, but you need to pick projects you’ll love, then the writing just follows

Oh yeah, that place. I went there last year and umm…no…no…it’s definitely NOT a good place. The only research you’ll find me doing these days is for fiction. Why yes, fiction has to sound more realistic than, well fiction. Glad you’re on the other side of that numb, empty, soul squelching, feather and tar your imagination place. (Hugs)Indigo

Oh you missed the fun words, fuck, damn, and shit on a cracker (winks). I have to admit some part of me would of found it hard to resist putting shit on a cracker somewhere in that report. You know just to liven things up. Indy
