It is far more important to be funny than correct.

But on this point, I might be wrong.

Or, worse, unfunny.

I was feeling very personally attacked, Ben.

But then I thought about it, and decided that unlike all other struggling writers, my opinions ARE actually important and everyone DOES need to read them. Also, my middling success is only because I haven't been discovered yet, and definitely not a reflection of the quality of my work.

Anyway, here's a fun tip. If you scream into the void long and loud enough it drowns out any kind of negative self talk.

Have you thought about screaming some more?

Well obviously it doesn’t apply to YOU.

And I’m afraid that I just can’t scream anymore. Voice has gone.
