I started writing The Whispers in 2000, after one of many over-dramatic crush on girl friend situation.

this is total BS but
Sarcasm doesn't always come across in writing, and it certainly didn't in this post. I get why commenters below called this "the most insulting thing on the Internet," and that's why it has been removed. New Times regrets the offense we've caused and hopes you'll stick with us in our next attempt at sarcasm. -- Eric Barton

(oh shit)
I realized a year ago that I didn’t want to be a stuffy writer, blogger, or journalist, asking questions like:
“What has Miami done for your writing? What do you think of Vice City?”
5 Questions with JJ Colagrande, REVMiami.com, March 31, 2010
How boring is that? Now, new and improved Ric Delgado writer, asks questions like:
“I’m required to ask you questions about Miami, so have you ever done cocaine off a stripper’s thigh, then had to hide a dead body in the Everglades?”
Nikki Glaser Jokes About A Lot of Messed Up Stuff at Miami Science Museum, Miami New Times, April 12, 2012
Bam! Now that’s a question.

To further my writing career, I knew I had to interject a lot more of my personality into my writing. And I think I’ve been doing that pretty damn well.
But, as a writer, particularly for a local Miami blog, there is a gigantic flaw in my plan to become rich and famous: NOBODY READS IN THIS CITY!
Yes, it is the sad and pathetic truth, but Miami dun’t reed too goods.

Jordan,
Sorry you feel that way. I wonder what kind of apology you'd suggest instead.

xp How about one that doesn't shift blame to the reader for not getting the intended "sarcasm" and one that includes the bit about how Ric Delgado's submissions will no longer be welcome by any outlet of the New Times corp?
