Okay, if you've been a writer for even a week, you've had at least one dopey comment. Let's make a list. I'll start:
1. I could do that too, if I had the time. (Translation--unlike you, I have a life.)
2. Why don't you go on Oprah so your book will sell better? (I'm so stubborn...she calls and calls and I just let the machine pick up.)

Okay, I'll play...
Shouldn't you consider going back to teaching [fill in the blank]? (As though this writing gig is just a phase.)
Can I send my manuscript to your agent?
Oh - and not really what they say when they call, but the fact that people will call me at all times during the day because they think I'm free to talk whenever.

"yes, but did you Really get paid? Like Really? You need to be careful with these phony internet sites " usually accompanied by " I heard about this friend who ....." and a rueful shake of the head1! (They've never heard of PayPal !)

"If you could get a real job, what would it be."
"I have a great idea that I know will be a bestseller. I'll tell you and you can write the book."
"I'd go crazy if I just sat around all day. How do you do it?"
"Wow, that's great, your (husband, wife) doesn't mind being the only bread winner."
