What if what i can not right Doth the world delight What if what i write and strive for are irrelevant What if i am part of the problem Not the solution i seek Then what is the point of my pen Better i cave and join the masses And suffer my partisan Than dig my own grave As i am no better no worse Only difference is i gave it a go and gave it my best shot But in the end it fell on deaf ears Like all of those who tried and failed before me

Stay true to your own thoughts and writings and dont be persuaded to shoe-horn your style to suit others. I've been guilty of that. As long as you yourself are happy with your work then that is what truly matters. Anything else is a bonus. Cheers - Gary
