Really? I mean, really?! Sorry, hon', I'm not taking that seriously. I just cannot. Your "mediocre-at-best writing"? Yeah, right. And I'm Santa. Don't sweat it, darling, there's always gonna be someone better than us, someone who's already done what we're doing and who's done it better and faster, but we're different, all of us, and nothing you write will ever be the same as anybody else's work. It won't even be the same as what you've already written: we're constantly changing, improving, becoming something else, and who knows? Maybe in a couple of years you'll be as observant as Sherlock Holmes and you'll write only super-detailed historical novels, or you might decide that writing doesn't suit you anymore, after all, and you'd like to take on a more "physical" hobby, instead, and then end up being the best juggler in the country. Don't get frustrated, you've got no reason to. ;)
