Against the grain
That’s where I’ll stay
Swimming upstream
I maintain against the grain
–Bad Religion
Sure, it might not help me sell a ton of books, but that’s never truly been my writing goal, only a nice dream to have. The fact that I know I have a few hundred copies of my seven novels out there, and that I have a small but loyal following here on my blogs? That’s good enough for me.
I know my work isn’t for everyone. It doesn’t quite fit in to What Sells or What’s Popular. But again, that’s never been my goal. I write what I want, how I want, and when I want. And that is what I’ve wanted.
And maintaining that bit of nonconformity in everyday life is also something worth embracing.
