Leanne said: "Almost all of what I've learned about writing, I learned after I'd wasted way
too many years studying it at university "

But think of all the wisdom you've gained. (I think I was actually being
serious back there.)


Ditto: "And yes, writing in the pub is a hell of a lot more entertaining.
Even if the verse is shite, the craic is worth it.

Well, the 'writing in a pub' part was definitely thought while still under
the influence of Buk. Though I've often practiced the venerable Michael
McNeilley's advice: "Write drunk, edit sober"; I've found, after wasting
way too many years that the first part is optional and the second isn't.
What cost wisdom! (Only slightly less than the cost of wisdom teeth
removal.)

P.S. Wisdom: Of the six people in the U.S. with the last name of "Faustus",
three of them live in Texas and none of the six is a Doctor.

P.P.S. Knowledge: After that I looked up "craic".
