Michael N. Marcus discusses writing, editing, publishing and sometimes other things. He often draws attention to inept publishers and writers. It's his duty and his compulsion. It's important and often funny. If you present work to the public, you must be able to withstand criticism. If your feelings get hurt easily, keep your work private. When you seek praise, you risk derision. In publishing, either produce pro-quality work by yourself or get help from qualified professionals.

Invoking my third-grade privilege
When I was in the third grade, in Mrs. Solomon's class in the Davis Street School in New Haven, Connecticut, we did not have to do any homework on our birthday.
That was the only nice thing that the nasty bitch ever did for our class.
Today is my 65th birthday. I'm now officially middle-aged. I'm not writing any more on this blog today (but I will put some funny pix on Facebook).
