04/06/2018 – J-Dub's Grin and Bear It

I fancy myself an unpublished author. A starving artist of sorts. I make no money at my craft but I am still paid handsomely for my work. Intangible payment true but payment nonetheless. And I guess I do publish tons of stuff. If you count the bluish aqua colored button with Publish… on the upper right of my blog that is. Haha!

I get that kind of publish doesn’t count in the “real” as opposed to fake world. Or … just maybe … it does. And in that case, I am a published author of the fictional variety. One J-Dub McGillicutty. I need a better pen name.

I have decided to make a category for #flashfiction on my blog. One of my most enjoyable types of posts to write. You see gang, I’ll let you in on a little secret. My #flashfiction is typically organic stream of consciousness. I guess I’ve spoiled the surprise but I imagine most of you already knew that.

I just love making stuff up and being a completely different person. I take liberties to embellish and get things off my chest. There is nothing so sweet as when dear friends or family (after reading one of my #flashfiction) call or text me to see if I am ok.

My pat answer is that my “story” was pure D fiction. I am not sure they really believe me though. I’ve been told I just want sympathy. That I should NOT air my dirty laundry. Pfft! Bite me. Lol. Despite the opinion of some, I am not an attention seeking diva (ASD). I am instead the Queen comma Drama (tQ,D). Hehe 🙂

And I guess I will continue writing for the foreseeable future despite no extra coin in my pocket.

Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart. ~ William Wordsworth

That’s exactly what I do Mister Wordsworth. Same when I put up my lame attempts at poetry. The only lame attempt at anything is the one not taken. That’s my spin on stupid questions. But and it’s a BIG butt. There ARE stupid questions. I should know since I’ve asked a boatload of stupid questions myself. Anyhoo. I am FIN. For today.

As always, more to come.
