Dear mum and dad, I’m a writer


I started writing letters to my parents in the beginning of this year. I found myself unable to respond…
I respectfully disagree with the idea that your writing, my writing, anybody’s writing sucks because it is turned down. The truth is that every writer has been turned down, even the “greats” and immortals. Different tastes, perspectives, politics, wrong side of the bed…who can say?
Persevere.
It is great that you are providing a place for writers to do just that!
