    Might it even increase the bliss? Or would dazed be a better adjective?

    Though I lived one summer in Alaska, since I was only a year old at the time, maybe I should allow someone else to answer?

    Do you realize how helpful you were by showing my that very long post, @nossmf?

    Isn’t it neat how I was able to fit 38 pages of three word posts into a single, very lengthy comment?

    If that post caused the downfall of this thread, wouldn’t that make it the worst post ever?

    Wouldn’t it be even stranger of a story had I not changed out words to family-friendly alternatives in three different places? 😂

    Do you think maybe there are so few questions being asked here now because they’re still reading that crazy long post from that other thread? 😆

    As an amateur novelist, is it wrong of me to draw inspiration for storylines from that thread/post?

    Can't I guarantee you would spend more money on the lawyer than you would earn in royalties off my sorry writing "career"? Do you know how much profit I have made through the sale of 225 copies of my first novel? If you said more than $100, mind if I start laughing? Any guesses how long it'll be before I quit my day job and devote myself to writing full time? Mind keeping those guesses to yourself, so I don't break down in tears?

    Are you telling me you earned less than $1 per copy you sold, @nossmf ? How is that not considered outright robbery?!

    Why does this comment make me so sad? 😢 Was is hard to continue to find passion in making art when you counted on it to make a living, @AdahPotatah2024 ?

    While I likely would have made more through a traditional publisher, isn't it far harder to turn a profit when self-publishing and accepting all the costs of production which come with? Isn't this why I'm hoping to get my second book published traditionally (and possibly get a re-release of my first book through the same medium)?

    Could I answer with a yes and a no since I was completely burnt out by portrait photography, while I continue to love painting? Do you think the Habitat for Humanity will ever start refusing my boxes of donated paintings!?

    Haiku Hijinks, anyone?

    Although I'm thinking
    the answer is obvious,
    what is the question?

    I sit here thinking
    the answer is obvious,
    but what's the question?

    Which is better, or are they equally bad?
