So writing is a way different discipline than talking. As hard as people thought that what I did back then&#8211;just sitting there, talking (hopefully amusingly) by my lonesome for a half hour, was, writing is actually a much more difficult medium for me.<\/p>\n<p>So, anyway, I\u2019m definitely not complaining.\u00a0 I\u2019m just mentioning how serious this all is to me.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_24817\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/itsnotaboutme.tv\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Screen-Shot-2016-09-27-at-7.42.59-AM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24817\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-24817\" src=\"http:\/\/itsnotaboutme.tv\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Screen-Shot-2016-09-27-at-7.42.59-AM-300x228.png\" alt=\"When I was looking for images that defined &quot;1,400 columns,&quot; I came upon this house in Georgia.
