Many writers suffer from terrible bouts of bitterness at their lack of relative success and furious jealousy of their peers. I dont blame them for this. They are only human and the drive to outdo and do-down other members of the feeding group plays an important evolutionary role in primates; jealousy and bitterness are psychological presentations of the competitive drive which keeps us alive. They can be useful for artists if harnessed as motivating energies for creation. But what sometimes happens instead unfortunately is in psychologically weaker people is these natural and perhaps unavoidable responses are allowed to fester inside repressed and unadmitted until the day they burst like pus through all the writers pores, especially the ones on his fingertips.
