This Post is Filler - June 6, 2008
There are a lot of good comments over on this post. I normally like to respond to each comment but I've been lazy. You guys are right. I'm incredibly lucky that I have very good, very accomplished writers around me that are willing to take the time to not only read my work but sit me down and tell me how to get to the next level. There's a lot to be said about the people you keep in your life.
This post is filler. I've been sitting here for about three hours trying to write a blog post. All I have to show for it is a dead battery and the paragraph above. Some days are like that, the urge to say something outruns whatever you actually have to say. Some days, the magic is knowing when to quit. Have a good weekend.
Edit: As a bonus, here is me being a total cliche. The aspiring writer sitting in a Los Angeles Starbucks with his shiny MacBook Pro. Have your people call my people, we'll do lunch.

Well, Ben, we all need some cliche in our lives, right?
Since I'm not really saying anything of value, I guess my comment is filler, too.

You know Ben, you're not really a writer unless the other customers at Starbucks see you writing.

Of course they saw me. I'M A BIG IMPORTANT WRITER.

I hope there's at least booze hidden in that coffee cup, Corman.

Always, what's not shown is the flask I keep in the messenger bag.
