Why You Respect The One-hit Wonder

Why You Respect The One-hit Wonder

Respect the one-hit wonder because – well – at lest they had a hit.

Which is more than the rest of us non-contributing peons can say.

Honestly, I know how this feels to a small extent.

See, one post goes a little bit viral and you spend the next year trying to do it again.

The truth is that nobody really knows what works.

Meh.

Respect the one-hit wonder not for his one hit but for all the days he must have suffered afterward, trying for another.

-Sarah Manguso, 300 Arguments (Amazon)
