Too true and too funny...I have a friend who keeps telling me he is going to live off the royalties of his unfinished unpublished novel...no matter what I tell him I can't change his mind...
That channelled some of the rage I feel whenever people ask me why I bother to write and edit every night when any old crap gets published nowadays. Surely it can't be that hard! *lol*
I love this! Funny and tragic at the same time. Kudos to any writer who makes it through that & gets a novel published. I hope to make it through to the other side eventually. Wish me luck, Evadne Macedo The 29th Day: a Novel http://books.macedo.ca
omg I think I peed a little. I am laughing so hard. That was so perfect and completely to the point. I made my husband watch it because he came to me the other day, wanting to write a book. That was the perfect reminder of all the things I went through to get my books out there. Thank you so much for that.

I did write the video script, so I thank you for posting it! And you posted my favorite line, too, about how many editors RH would assign to his book.
Rest assured I channeled every crazy story/tip/bit of advice I've learned here and other blogs in coming up with the script.
Thanks,
David
This made my day. My week. This entire NaNoWri Month!
Thanks for writing it, David. It's pretty fantastic.

Wonderful... the naked, ugly truth!
Every aspiring writer should watch this video.
This made my entire week
"My throat is starting to close up." Classic.

I'm so happy this video has gone viral. I laugh so hard when I watch it that I have to pause the video to catch my breath.
I love this video. I watch it whenever I get ahead of myself and need a reality check.
Thank you David. This is magnificent!
ps,
extra points for 'fiction novel'.
Applicable to some other creative fields esp. film.
"I'm a student of the human condition." LOL!
I love you, I really do. I haven't laughed this hard in ages. The pitchforks, oh, the pitch forks...
Owww, owww, ouch! I'm laughing so hard it hurts.
"Do you want to be my ghostwriter for 10%?"
That's a justification for homicide!
My agent shared this one with me. OMG, hilarious and so dead on. Major applause for getting literally every delusional comment in there! Bravo! Bravo!
Hilarious! And spot on!
I really love it!!! Thanks for sharing

This has to be one of my favorite xtranormal videos ever. Love the line about being "a student of the human condition." xD

I like how earnest the character is.
There has not been a new post in months. Are you out of gas? Or something more ominous. You are missed.
Ten percent!
I'ma have to watch this one a couple more times. Thanks for that!
Good idea about writing several novels at once. I need more folders now.
Oh man!! I actually KNOW newbie writers who have said such things. God help us all!!
I take the fact I consider the wannabe writer an idiot as proof that I have at least a chance.
I can't believe it got him an agent but it did. Apparently his queries weren't up to speed.
Steak knife surgery? Horseshoes are so much faster.
Why use steak knives? Horseshoes work just fine.
Too many delusional writers out there to count. The moral lesson: don't quit your day job for a creative pursuit.
