One thing I constantly tell my writing students is that ours is a business of "No" (as are most of the arts, fwiw). Getting used to and steeling yourself to the "No" is an essential skill we all need. Looking forward to checking out the podcast!

Roxanna Eldon gave a class at Miami Dade on writing with humor. I took it and it was fun but it's interesting how some people find something funny and others don't. One of the best stories was written by my BFF George Gutierrez. It was about how he tried to help teach his daughter how to use a Tampon through the bathroom door. :)

My new Match profiles is similar: "Looking for a woman with a nice rack and low self-esteem." Can't imagine why I am still so alone.
