I wouldn&amp;#39;t know what else it takes for someone to be a novelist, I don&amp;#39;t even have a blog :). But you should certainly work on your unstarted/unfinished novel :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While this may not apply to you, Procrastination need not always be bad. There are people (and they arent rare if I may extrapolate) who can deal with the regret of not trying much better than the disappointment that can come with trying and not succeeding.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6104031/5698446690140074667/comments/default/683854120758757868'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6104031/5698446690140074667/comments/default/683854120758757868'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://scritic.blogspot.com/2009/06/sigh-story-of-my-life.html?showComment=1248549587604#c683854120758757868' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://scritic.blogspot.com/2009/06/sigh-story-of-my-life.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104031.post-5698446690140074667' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6104031/posts/default/5698446690140074667' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104031.post-4360303850611301055</id><published>2009-07-25T12:32:09.066-04:00</published><updated>2009-07-25T12:32:09.066-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Well, modifications as in - at least he blogged as...</title><content type='html'>Well, modifications as in - at least he blogged as a way of avoiding writing his novel and he is a pretty successful blogger too.
