It wasn’t my fault. There is a broad spectrum of emotional and intellectual responses, often polarized, when hearing that phrase stated by someone who has suffered a setback in life. But taken at face value, it wasn’t my fault, is often correct. You, they nor I did nothing to bring about…

Writing: You Gotta Love It; You Gotta Hate It
Writing is a love-hate relationship.
Writing: you gotta love it and you gotta hate it!
I love churning out 5,000 words in a day. But I hate deleting 5,000 words from a section that just wasn’t working. (Some things you’ve added to your story just don’t fit and can’t be saved.)
