M is for...

Maniac. Some writers have been called this from time to time.

Mac. A computer writers use when they don't like PC's.

Mad Magazine. Ahahahahahaha Really funny writers contribute to this. (No, that is NOT how I became mad.) Humph.

Magic wands. Writers use these in their fabulous stories.

Mailbox. Writers love these when they hold royalty checks, loving letters from fans, idolizing letters from their editors. They DON'T like them when they hold rejection letters. (Huh? The dents in mine? Oh, those are from hail damage. I did NOT beat it with a hammer.) *hides hammer behind back* *grins shyly*

    You always make me smile. But I thought magic wands were used to wave over a manuscript and make it an instantly perfect best-seller.

    I am enjoying your A-Z. M for magic wand, now that is a good one. I would like a magic wand to put a spell on my mailbox, so that when I opened the box, in there would be a published book! I can only dream!

    Better to beat the mailbox up than something else... like the dog (who would be very miffed)... :)

    M is for Moody that we writers are. M is also for Madness that we are prone to sometimes.

    There are two awards for you on my blog.

    All of these posts make me smile :) And I find MAD magazine to be hilarious. Have you seen the new cartoon show based on it? Really funny.
