I heard one was spotted in hawaii, but it turned out to be an actor... ok.enough silliness:) god luck with the writing... well. on the up-side… ferociously brilliant writers are usually miserable and tend to think of suicide as a noble pastime (pun intended)

These tips sound very effective for making yourself miserable! But if you've only done half of them so far, you've got some work to do if you want to be truly miserable. On the other hand, one could argue that being miserable is not a worthwhile goal. Anyway, I wish you success in whichever direction you want to go! Wow, Amanda.
