I wanted to become some science editor type of person,since I like various scientific subjects.
I couldn't afford the non-fiction writing courses offered at the time and ended up taking a creative writing course instead. That was 20 years ago.
When the teacher gave us the writing assignments, I would always end up turning them into humourous writing.(Except one serious science
fiction short story) The teacher said my dialogue writing was brilliant and I didn't need any more training, that I could be a professional right now. The
rest of the students really liked my stuff as well.
I was in a state of shock actually, since most people just didn't get my humour before. I was like,"what the h___ just happened?"
I was all excited and encouraged. I sent some samples to several publishers, but was rejected for various reasons, like;"not our
style". I became so discouraged that I said I would never write again. I'm not good with rejection very well I guess.
I then focused on other things in life, until now.
I've recently had more time on my hands and found myself writing again. I find I have to write in order to express myself, whether I'm
paid or not, I must create things. But if its possible to make a living at it someday then ok.
I've written to several comedians and writers for advice and they either never replied or tell me they don't give advice.
I've realized over the years that most people don't laugh at my stuff because they didn't understand it.
I've just discovered this forum and was hoping for maybe encouragment, feedback, advice, appreciation out of writing. I feel all
artists need these things.
Thanks.
P.S. How does a humour writer start? Thru an agent?
