Wanted: Writer. Some experience Necessary
It's not enough to be a writer, is it? Don't we also carry a multitude of other duties on a daily basis? I suppose it has to be that way though, or we'd never have anything new to plug into our writing experience. We have to get off our little velvet stools once in awhile and stop writing long enough to dabble in the stock market or listen to a child talk or ride a (literal) roller coaster. We don't have to experience everything, but some real-life experience is necessary to keep the heart and mind open to fresh ideas and creative surges that can help us through the doldrums when we aren't feeling the muse.
