I can't compete with your set of 8 dinner plates for $19.99, and your 12 coffee mugs for $30.  Should I stay or should I go?  I was feverently creating the next big thing in pottery, all the while 130,000 more square feet of Earth under your next control.  "What was I thinking!" I ask myself.  I must have been wasted thinking I could go up against you.  Or is it you I'm even against; where have all the appreciators of handmade items gone?  I think I saw one or two of you glancing back at me over the gas pump apologetically, "it's not you."  I looked back, and said to myself "I understand, someone always a hand in your back pocket."  I'll keep creating my pottery; I do it because I like it.  However, I urge those reading this, to pass this blog site (http://mochaware.blogspot.com) to whoever you know.  This is the future of art, is it better off dead?  If not, support me by purchasing my work at http://mochaware.etsy.com.

I feel your pain. We just need to convince people that more is not better and handmade is special. I think we can do it. Good luck!
