New Year - New Direction?

For those still slogging away, without an agent, manager or sale, after years of toil, is 2017 the year you move on with your life? Maybe you got married in the time and a faily is now more pressing of your time, maybe you just want to spend your time on something more fun, maybe your life has taken a new direction.

This is not a call for failure. Many people walk away for pastures new - it doesn't make you a quitter. In fact, if you're never gonna make it then the only failure would be to plod on regardless. Madness, as Einstein said.

Actually he never said that. People just say he did.

I feel like the OP is projecting to validate her writer's block.

Bubblegum,

That's a silly presumption to make considering there's zero evidence or reason to think that. The question is a genuine one.

Strangeler,

My life is taking me in directions that means I get little time to write. Will probably break with my manager in the next month, too. Not to be haughty but if I wanted to lessen the competition, I wouldn't do it on STW but at a place where real competition exists.

And what exactly was your point in posting it in the first place?

ALWrite,

The point is very clear. Not sure why you're being so obstinate. Nor Bio. Nor Strangeler. But hey ho, as you were.

Speaking of ho's, how is your gender reassignment going? Did you find a plate small enough to store your frank and beans?

Thanks for the prejudice and hate. I don't even know you therefore 'you' must be Chem Dali under yet another pseudonym - which is a shame considering I don't recall any issues between us and even if we had, I'm not holding any grudges.

Oh look, reddits resident troll has come onto imdb to accuse others of trolling, and then immediately goes about trolling.

Is this the extent of your skills? Come on, you can do better than this. Show the room what you've got.
