Blah blah blah writing

Okay, so I have some news which is probably waaaaay more important to me than to any of you. Still.

1. TOTALLY BEING PUBLISHED IN THE NEWSPAPER. Well, okay, it's the school newspaper and it's theatre reviews BUT AHAHA YES. Finally.

2. I am thinking that there is no way I could get For Want of a Physicist Published, and even if I did, it wouldn't exactly be, you know, a big thing. SO. I was thinking. I have been reading a lot of Tales of Mu, (and a lot of webcomics), and I was maybe thinking of trying my hand at a web novel. But you know, first of all, work and updates and all. Also, I am sixteen, man, and I have been improving (as far as I can tell) pretty much every year. I mean, that's not so terrible when it's only been a year or two, but I can't imagine if I wrote something now that I would be ashamed people read when I was older. I mean, my friends and relatives like what I write, but what does that really say? My friends think the back of a cereal box is good reading (no offense to any of my lovely friends reading this!) and I'm related to my family. Duh. SO I AM MAYBE A LITTLE HESITANT ABOUT MAKING A FOOL OF MYSELF BUT I kind of want to see if I can do it. You know.

SO WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

Go for it.

SOMEBODY will like it. For as many people as read Tales of MU, even more people look at it and decide it's absolute garbage. That's the beauty of internet publishing, though. You're not spending $20,000 putting together a publicity package for your book so who cares if one person doesn't like it as long as another person does?

...okay, I just spent the longest time trying to think up a coherent response to that and have failed miserably. So miserably I think my dog thinks I'm crazy now.

So, um, er, well, yeah. Thank you for the advice? Um. I guess it's just a matter of figuring out how to do it, now.

Thanks. I think you just made my day, even if I probably won't be able to sleep now.
