Andrew Careaga at Bloggedy Blog writes Publish or Perish (A Prayer). Murmur while sifting through rejection slips. Here's an excerpt:



If I should die before I publish,

I pray the Lord to take my rubbish,

and raise those dull words from the dead,

that I may be posthumously read.



I pray the Lord will let some lover

of my true genius soon discover

the stacks of pads on which I've scribbled

those words these editors think are drivel



A good post. A good blog. And Andrew's having a good day. Go read more.
