Even though I am guilty of Aggravated Political Incorrectness on many counts, I have no career to lose!
I am a Nanoessay Writer. Some people will argue that there is no such thing as a nanoessay. In many Sciences nano means one billionth. Most essays have less then one megabyte of data -- thus a nanoessay should have less then one bit of information, which is impossible! Not me, but physicists and engineers are misusing the prefix "nano". The original Greek meaning of "nano" is dwarf. A dwarf is small but he/she has much greater weight then one billionth of a normal person. For instance, I weigh 155 kg. A dwarf may be 5 to 10 times lighter then me, but not a billion times.
Physicists and engineers are also guilty of changing the meanings of "micro" -- small in Greek, and "pico" -- peak, beak, or bit in Spanish. Likewise, in Greek, "Mega" means great, "Giga" means giant, and "Tera" means monster. At 155 kg I may be considered to be a giant, but I am not a billion times heavier then an average person. Some people are monsters, but they are not a trillion times bigger then an average person. Other prefixes are not misused. They are directly connected to their corresponding powers of 10 or 1000.
Sometimes I write nanostories. Hello Igor Frankenstein. I have no ability to write long stories, let alone novels. If I would ever publish a book, it would consist of my nanoarticles and nanostories. I like to share my nanoarticles and nanostories online and receive feedback. Aside from Aggravated Political Incorrectness, I am guilty of "using forums as my own blog". Getting enough responses to a blog post is quite difficult.
Generally I answer all replies to my nanoessays and nanostories. Thus I am not guilty of Aggravated Spamming. The offense of Aggravated Spamming consists of leaving your nanoessays, nanostories, or advertising links on many forums and failing to attend to the replies. Usernames guilty of Aggravated Spamming are banned by most forums, subreddits, and other forms of Social Media. In early years of Internet, Aggravated Spamming was much more pervasive.
I work on my nanoessays and nanostories at least 3.5 hours a week. Given that I have other duties, this is not such a small time. My overall workweek including chores is about 15 hours. Given my Moderate Depression and Moderate Autism, that is more then enough!
Sometimes I have neither material nor inspiration to write 3.5 hours in a given week. In these cases, I still write without inspiration. Knowing myself, I can not let myself skip even one week. Otherwise, I will stop writing altogether -- even when I have inspiration. Laziness has to be fought like an addiction.
