President Biden inherited one heck of a mess, and he's working hard to build back better. Dark Brandon isn't the hero some of y'all wanted, but he's the one we need.

"Don't disturb the writer." Are you drafting? On deadline? Stop those coffee shop chatters before they even get started.

"I became a writer to give the voices in my head something productive to do."

"Don't disturb the writer."

"Buy my book." Ah, that greatest and most distant hope of every mad writer who's clawed their way out of the querying trenches and into the new hellscape of publication. PLEASE JUST BUY OUR WORK. Our sales stats need your help, reader friends. You're our only hope.

"Never wrong a writer. We get our revenge in print." It's true. If you make a writer angry, you might just make a cameo in a book someday, and it won't be pretty.

As a famous white-dude author once said... Wait, I can't tell you exactly what he said because his estate has the quote trademarked and they really love cease and desist letters. But his name rhymed with Bemingway and he advised writers to scribble out those rough drafts while intoxicated, then revise them after sobering up. One Mad Writer recommends whiskey and coffee to reach the desired mindsets for each task. Cheers!

Nearly all mad writers are fueled by coffee. We know what it's like to jitter out of a coffee shop after an especially productive caffeine-and-writing session.

Any writer who's serious about the industry will end up with a healthy pile of rejection letters and emails. Might as well laugh about it!

If you're a writer, you're almost certainly one type of mad or another.
