As Opposed to Getting Paid….

Tonight I sent of the paper work to Romance Writers of America to be a “PRO” writer.  Not nearly as exciting, or exclusive, as it sounds.  The requirements are slim.  All I needed was proof that I’ve submitted to an agent or editor.  Lord knows I have plenty of those.  So I filled out the application and I’m sending it in.  What the heck.  Now I feel more official.  I get a nifty pin to attach to my name tag at the meetings and everything.

I didn’t need to send in the subsequent rejection, but damn it, if they want proof I’m working, then they can have the rejection, too.  I don’t want it anymore.
