Author Stories

You know when authors say that they suffered for a long, long time before they got published? Well, I think I can beat JK Rowling yet.

Has your bank finances ever gotten down to less than 20 dollars in your account? Mine has.

Have you ever lived with cockroaches AND bed bugs in a cheap apartment? Mine does.

Have you lived in an apartment without air conditioning and heat? Well, here you go.

Don’t have a daughter to take care of. I’m too poor. I’m also too poor to find a way towards welfare.

I think I’m a shoe-in for great author if having a financially poor past is a prerequisite.

I hate programs that think they are smarter than me.

I’m staring at you WordPress. You took out my commenting code out of the Theme editor. You think that domains are old news.

You know why Microsoft Word is annoying? Because it makes decisions for you–that is why Microsoft Works was often laughed at as Microsoft fail.

If I make a mistake–go ahead and tell me. But if I really want to do it, let me say write out an image URL and style sheet into the theme editor. Let me put in commented text into WordPress taking out php code that I wish to store. Sorry, wordpress, but you aren’t smarter than me, I’ve been making UIs before you were born. You aren’t that special with your special PHP code that one has to memorize to use you again.
