Today marks thirty years since my first short story sale. I've written at length about that first sale and the early days of my writing career here, so I won't take up the space again. However, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to the editors who have bought my work and the readers who have read it for the past three decades. Thanks to all of you for allowing me to avoid honest employment for so many years.
Congratulations James. Never being a writer I wouldn't know for sure, but I have a feeling that making a living for that long in the writing business is a lot harder than a lot of the honest jobs.
Cool.
ReplyDeleteSeems like only yesterday.

Honest work is vastly overrated. Keep on doing what you're doing, amigo.
