Writing and reading humor for a Monday

I enjoy writer/illustrator Debbie Ridpath Ohi‘s site, Inkygirl blog, and cartoons she contributes to Writer Unboxed.  I wanted to introduce you to Debbie and share 3 of my favorite cartoons. Maybe she’ll inspire you, too!

I’ve suffered from this – there’s no unseeing what has been seen!

Writing challenges are great, but let’s be careful!

  1. I TOTALLY get all that! Loving my blog and self-set challenges etc, but worry I’m not putting enough time into my novels :/

  2. I write articles, so I doubt that anybody’s worrying about getting stuck into my pieces in the same way, but I can personally relate to that first cartoon. I gulp novels down like peanuts, so I know how it feels to reluctantly crack open that first page of a favourite author’s novel and start chomping. What’s taken a writer months to put together usually takes me a handful of days to demolish. I often feel as sorry for the writer as I do for myself.

    • Mary, I’ve felt the same way — especially during the summer with beach read romances – those books I bring away that take me only a few hours to devour and then pass on to someone else. I’ve sometimes felt guilty for reading a book quickly. 🙂
