We are a society, which looks up to the writers and authors amongst us. But before we give them a free pass to the higher level of society, shouldn’t we consider the reality of the situation? As a non-writer type I find it fascinating to psychologically profile all the writers, as most of these folks are not very devout about their writing, but like to think they are? Most writers are lazy and complain about writer’s block and such. Many write very little and think there writing is sooo wonderful; they act like pre-Madonnas.
Let’s take online writers for instance; anyone can become an online writer. So they write 100 articles submit them to one of a 1,000 online article submission sites and call themselves a writer? Interesting, as we now have a whole new group of up and coming online article writers, but unfortunately they are Pre-Madonna’s too, just like the writers at the New York Times who plagiarize, make stuff up and interject a liberal skewed view of the world at every turn.
In regards to the online new article writer well that is weak really, no offense to those who are working to achieve it, but most of the writers write very few articles and most of them are regurgitated knowledge they read somewhere? That does not take a whole lot of thought. Simply spouting the industry party-lines is just not worthy, there are enough people out there already doing that. Now all these writers want to go and make rules about their industry for instance the latest rule making procedure is about miss-spellings in Titles of articles? Give it a rest, that is just whining, who cares. It is truly amazing the level of hypocrisy of writers and as we know most suffer from depression and take drugs for it or are alcoholics. Consider this in 2006.
