Oh, I'm not heated with you. You write with a passion. I meant that when people do it just for recognition or money, not for the love of writing. Sure, they might be good writers. Sure, the recognition is fine, but I really don't want it. I do like it when people approach me and tell me that I did a great job at writing a novel. I beleive that most writers write for the recognition, which is one of the reasons that I write; even though it is low on my list. I write to let out my feelings. I write so that I don't get bogged down with my emotions. Humph, I'm confusing myself now. All right, I confess, I enjoy the recognition quite a bit.

lol. It's only natural to want your work acknowledged to be good. The only differences between us is that you write for personal reasons first and foremostly, to let yourself out. Me, I'm a ham. I just want attention and praise, and when I write I always have other people in mind. My first thought is not whether or not I like the work, but whether or not other people will.

Lol, I'd write for the money. It's my job. Not that I've published anything yet, but my major is English.

I sent in a short story to a magazine a few months ago and they said that they would buy it...I guess I'm getting paid for my writing.

Go ahead. Rub your success in my face. I don't mind.
j/k. I do mind.
j/k. I really don't. I'm gonna be famous someday too, just wait and see. Remember then name Christopher Reid, because I am gonna fill the void J. K. Rowling is going to leave when The Deathly Hollows ends the Harry Potter saga.
