A great blog post about writerly/artistic jealousy over at a place called Rumpus.net, which I had not heard of prior to spotting the link on Twitter:

Dear Awful Jealous Person,

We are all savages inside. We all want to be the chosen, the beloved, the esteemed. There isn’t a person reading this who hasn’t at one point or another had that why not me? voice pop into the interior mix when something good has happened to someone else. But that doesn’t mean you should allow it to rule your life, sweet pea. It means you have work to do.


Read the rest. It's worth it.

In appreciation, I purchased a "Write Like a Motherfucker" mug. Drinking fresh coffee from it as I type.
