Advice for writers, part the second

A week or so back I re-posted a blog from Marvel's talent manager C.B. Cebulski which carried some very solid advice for writers wishing to break into Marvel. Today I wanted to post the second half of that advice.

I know yesterday's Tips & Tweets didn't sit well with some people. I got plenty of responses along the lines of, "But I only wanna write for Marvel" and "All my ideas are Marvel ideas!" Now while this is nice to hear, it's also a bit disappointing. Writers write. Period. About anything and everything. And while it's great you wanna write solely for Marvel, if that's the case, you may want to reconsider writing as a career choice. You should never limit yourself creatively like that!
Yeah, this is the kind of advice that folks really need to hear, but you can read the rest of it yourself.
