Thanks Annie

Thank you Annie for making me feel like being a writer will lead me no where. You are right. There are a lot of manuscripts in the world, so why would anybody bother to read mine. Thank you for highlighting my biggest insecurity as a writer. Do I have what it takes to write a good novel? What can I possibly say that will interesting for anyone to read? Should I even become a writer? Should I bother with the eventual disappointment of a rejection letter? Do I have what it taked to keep on going even after my manuscript is declined by a lot of publishers? I don't know. I hope so. If anything, I will do it just to spite this cranky ass lady.
I just hope that someone will feel what I feel when I write something that I have had inside of my head for a very long time. I have always said that if i write one book, and that book is amazing, I will be happy. Though it would be extremely nice to write something that will make me richer than the queen of england. But money is not my biggest concern. If i write the next "One Hundred Years of Solitude" while being dirt poor, then I would call that a successful life.
Screw you Annie. I'll show you.
