I read a satire of stages of writers. It got me to thinking about the real stages of writers. Anybody want to play? Maybe something like this, for the beginning at least:
1) Finishing something.
- Being impressed that you actually finished something.
- Everybody thinks it's great- My mom, my best friend, my spouse!
2) Participating in critiques.
- These people are mean/stupid/jealous/unfair
- Work takes a leap in quality.
3) Submitting.
- Cool!
- These people are mean/stupid/unfair
4) Getting published?
5) ?
Etc.?
