Do you think my boat is too ostentatious?
Writers Need to Eat, Too!
You know that you can support me and the arts **HERE** where you are reading this now.
Or, you can support me on my “**DEEPER DOOFUS TOUR.**”
At any rate, you can see me up on the starboard side of the bridge.
“Starboard” has nothing to do with the sky, and “bridge” will not help you cross a river. Other than that initial confusion, that is me working on my daily creative writing. This is remote work work in its truest sense, with no commute, no boss, and no W-2.
And as soon as I can talk the bait shop into carrying paper, I’ll be pretty self-sufficient.
So, I urge you to support me on Medium and my tour. Even drag out your old II-C and start writing every day to limber up your own writing muscles. If you, too, want to be a big-time writer, I’ve got some hints I can help you with.
**I am also writing a lot about new writers, making a living at the trade…**
Thanks so much. Later!
