Crappy Writers and Crappiness in General

Got another couple flat rejects from agents for crappy query letters for fantasy saga book 1 (6 months turnaround for one of them – for a *query* letter).

“You’re a crappy writer I’ve never heard of. I can’t sell three copies of this frickin’ crap you crappy writers keep pitching. Fuck off.”

Why do I do this shit, again?

Oh, that’s right: cause I’m going to write books anyway. I may as well try and sell the goddamn things.

I’m going to rent some movies and drink something.

I’ve got another novel to work on tomorrow.
