I would like to introduce everyone to Andrew Joyce who graciously accepted my invitation to appear as a guest blogger while I am vacationing.

My name is Andrew Joyce, and I write books. I have no day job; my books sell well enough to keep body and soul together. The same for my dog. I mean the royalties from my sales help keep his body and soul together also, not that he writes books. He only writes short stories, but hasn’t sold any as of yet.

Colleen has been kind enough to allow me a little space to vent and/or rant. Take your pick. I’m an old man, and if I didn’t live on a boat, I’d be the guy out there shaking my fist and yelling at the neighborhood youngsters to “Get off my lawn you damn kids!”

My rant today will be about what I dislike about writing…
