So, I have done two things that I always threatened to do. I've set the wheels in motion to make a documentary and I've written a 2000 word piece which I think could be published online.
It's not quite misery-lit, but it is a confessional. And I think it's good. I've a good hook to start off with, a narrative and some quite shocking detail. I think it's a winner.
Who should I send it to? Should I write a cover letter explaining who I am? Guardian? Atlantic? New York Times? Vice? Any suggestions are welcome because I don't have a fucking clue. I think it's good and it reads well and it's total clickbait (I have integrity but I'm a complete whore). Even if I was paid nothing for it, I would leave my job immediately and write (and make docus and play music).
Please help Thumped. I don't even mind sending to one of you to read, as I can in no way show it to my lady or anyone I know. I think it reads well. I'm 32 in a couple of weeks, at my wit's end, sitting down for PMDS tomorrow and all I want to do is create and entertain.
My lady makes €79k a year, so I have a bit of leeway. A bit.
Thanks, Pricks.
