Appreciation for that Daily Grind

I read on other blogs and author sites  people asking them what's your job? How do you do it? Give me advice.

My first thought is, god how dumb can these people be. Being an author is hard work and its not something you can really explain to others. They get up in the morning get their kids off if they have them then move into their office  whether its a room in the house or apartment or a desk in the corner of the kitchen or the lap top on the coffee table in the living room;then they start writing, putting ideas and thoughts down and filling in the details creating people.. people that other people can visualize and imagine with clarity and then they create situations believable situations for these people.

Can you tell a story: Can you create it on the fly make it something that keeps others listening in and wanting all the little pieces, you may have what it takes. Start trying to write them out. Use a medium that's comfortable to you be it pen and paper or crayon on the wall or using the computer; start writing tell that story describe those people tell us about the mystery and hardships of their lives

I can tell a story, i can even start writing it down but so far I haven't been able to get an entire story down on paper (or into the digital) but I'm not giving up either. I'll keep trying and trying till i eventually succeed.

Writing is hard work. Thinking that hard and coherently isn't easy for8 or more hours a day.

Every author out there has my sincere appreciation for all the hard work they put into their craft.
