Just unplug the phone while you are writing so that you don't get disturbed.

As for horror and sci-fi not being real writing, a lot of people don't think that it is because it doesn't deal with real issues. These are also the people who read Frankenstein's Monster and think that it is a story about a scientist who made a monster and some people getting killed and then the monster getting killed... when it is actually about Man's responsibility to the situations that he creates, it is about the fear of what isn't understood and about what happens when stupid people are allowed to walk around with pitchforks.

They don't understand that there is symbolism in everything and any story that is written is really just a dingus.
