Alma Hromic is bat-sh*t crazy

Read HERE first to find out what I mean.

Ms. Hromic is like many artists I have crossed paths with in my life. She believes that art cannot possibly come from everyone and anyone. Art comes only from a select, privelaged few.

Get over yourself.

Art is subjective. What you call genius I may call idiotic. My favorite thing may be the most dreadful piece you have ever seen. BUT art is still art. I will go so far as to call something "bad art" because bad is an opinion word. What one calls bad art is not universally bad, obviously. But to make a judgement about a thing and call it NON-art is an attempt at declaring a fact. Saying a chair is a non-banana is hard to argue... unless the chair is shaped like a banana... in which case it would be art... but bad art...

Anyway, this lady makes the argument that NANOWRIMO trivializes what authors do by advocating that every Tom, Dick, and Alma write a novel. This confuses and angers Alma, much like shiny things do to The Incredible Hulk. She seems to have a strong dislike for struggling writers, which is strange since she had to have been one at one time or another. Nobody is born published... unless you're Michael Jackson's baby. I bet that kid has book offers as soon as he can talk. But I digress.

Ms Alma even goes so far as to make an anology to brain surgery. No one is going to say writing an entire novel is easy, but brain surgery? Are you out of your godd@amn mind? That is a terrible analogy for writing, any way you slice it... pun intended.

Unfortunately for me, I started this Nano off on the wrong foot and had considered blowing it off, but this lady's Tom-Cruise-esque rant has moved me to attempt it again, just to spite her.

I hope you're reading this you self-important hose beast. Published or not, I WILL defeat you!!!
