Move on. Don't jump for naked hooks. He's offering an opinion and those are free, so everyone has one.
If you're making money out of it be humble. That's where it all goes wrong. People, pardon the manners, will p**s on anything where making money is involved.
If you are happy with your works and you appeal to an audience then you have your niche. No harm done.
The pure lits who are an inspiration to others and ahead of their time, gifted, on mind boggling substances ( and most were/are) died penniless and destitute or hard up women. Just a take. Call it commercialism and marketing on your side. ...and I am not taking sides.
If it gives you personal satisfaction eff the critics.

Nothing more than opium for the masses, give the public what they want.
Is The Sunday Sport a better rag than The Telegraph?

Call it commercialism and marketing on your side. ...and I am not taking sides. If it gives you personal satisfaction eff the critics. I have eight pen names - this one is the one that causes a degree of fuss among the social spastics. I regard five other pen names as throw away. One, I would like to have taken off a bit better, but it's a tight genre - not easy to break. The last one is the one of true interest to me. It's not money that motivates me - I only bring that up to annoy said spastics. It's the "creating," that's intriguing - writing a novel is not easy - far more difficult than I imagined. Once you write it - then the work starts. Content editors are worth their weight in gold as they can spot plot holes, and the best of them will rip the p**s out of your more outlandish mistakes. Then you get to go back over it - again, and again, and again - until finally someone in the chain says "enough already, pub the effin book!!" So yes - I do agree with Buhi up to a point - doing it in the expectation of money is a "bad," motive. Most people I see crash and burn do so because they don't breakthrough with their first book/novel. If only it were that easy. The creative process is amazing - when you are writing and in the zone you are in another world. Then you have to wake up and try to make sense of what your brain wrote when you were in auto-pilot. And at the end of it all? - I can say - "I wrote that." That's a great feeling - and being paid is a welcome bonus. |

The telegraph brings the news, financial data and relevant information of what is happening in our world into our homes and the Sunday Sport (aka 'The Sport' to it's regular readers) offers us tits on every page, the crossword is easier and keeps us advised on Elvis'/Hitler's current whereabouts. There really is no contest. |

So reading the comment you made above in an earlier post you are implying that the members here are ''social spastics?''
Indeed a demeaning and offensive comment.
For a literary giant as you profess yourself to be I personally find the comment you made indicative of someone with a low intellect and an inability or unwillingness to relate to other peoples ideas and views.
Perhaps theblether you might do well to consider the impact and the meaning of some of the words you use.
Noun
spastic (plural spastics)
(now offensive, especially in the UK) A person affected by spastic paralysis or spastic cerebral palsy.
(slang, offensive especially in the Britain) A stupid, clumsy person.
Spastic
The offensiveness of spastic and spaz differs considerably between the US and the UK.
In the United States, the terms are inoffensive; in the UK, they are typically taken as denigrating references to those with cerebral palsy, and consequently University of Sussex linguist Lynne Murphy has described spastic as "one of the most taboo insults to a British ear" and in a 2003 survey by the BBC it was voted the second-most offensive word relating to disability after retard.

It wasn't aimed at the members here, but it's clear that you have leapt onto the hook, swam towards the river bank, and deposited yourself in the net. So, for the purpose of clarity, Siampolee - I'm not interested in what you think. |

It not pen name that cause fuss, it your poor attitude to other humans not only in internet but in real world too. Remember I meet many people who know you in real. They no forget. You should have shame for way you talk about people, but you no have. You call people spastics. What right you have to say that? You a very ignorant and sad man.

Much the same as many are not interested in that drivel which you write.
You blether epitomise the typical lost causes sweaty sock attitude.
I think the post above outlines your attitudes succinctly and it's from someone who knows you and who it seems moves within your social circle. Oh to see ourselves as others do!!
Your compliments are returned

Is the word handicapped banned now in the UK?
Should the Thais rewrite their lanugage to remove the word, พิการ and conform to Western PC BS.
Personally I thought he was talking about social spastics, rather than the it would seem non pc term spastic.
Take a walk down lower Suk or Pattaya soi 6, social spastics would seem an apt description.
Welcome to the land of fluffly white clouds unicorns and everyone tip toeing through the flowers, lets all adopt the lotus position, join hands and sing kumbaya.
I for one am glad I live in Asia.
I dont need the Hollywood pinko brigade to dictate my thoughts, or tell me whats acceptable.
