HAPPY artists are generally crap. I used to be miserable and I wrote a lot, about ten years ago. Anyone who read anything written by me would go WOW! One day I woke up and I refused to be miserable. My wife had contributed to that. So I stopped writing. When you're happy you have other stuff to do, than write crap.

Writing when miserable is nothing but a form of self-pity and an attempt to get others to pity you as well, but on a more artistic level. You're not just a fucking moron who can't get shit right, you're a tortured soul who writes beautiful combinations of words. Humans are emotion junkies, so they read that shit. I, for one, would rather read a step-by-step get-rich-quick scheme, than poetry. At least I'd learn *something* from that, not just waste my time feeling pity for yet another moron who has nothing better to do with his/her time.
