Interesting. If there's one thing I was put on this earth to do, it's write. Nothing else gives me anything like as much satisfaction. It's my natural interest. I reckon it's a totally selfish pursuit too. I've written this and that, here and there, but never on the themes I'd like - satire/criticism.
I did some work experience for a literary agency a while ago, and the refusal rate for unsolicited manuscripts was pretty much 100% - tough gig, writing.
You should write some satire/ criticism, then. I know, I know- it's not that simple, but why not try anyway?
You probably already do try, so I'll shut up.
I would really like to have Geoff Manaugh's job, writing BDLDBLOG. He's also the editor at Dwell, which I could take or leave (honestly because I know I haven't got the knowledge base to do the job properly- or at all).
