*sounds of explosions and all that crashy stuff*

I suppose I was due. Oh well. Early to bed tonight and no work in the morning should help.

Blech.

Aside from that, all is well.

Edit I wrote these two stories for Writer's Craft in OAC and I was hugely proud of them both. I've been meaning to type them up and put them in keypers for quite some time. Only I sat down and re-read "Coffee on Queen" and oh good lord, I'm kind scared to read "Escape". Yes, there is something solid and still good about the former, but there's just so much about it that is cringe-worthy. It's like picking up your favourite childhood novel and realising it's not the excellent piece of litterature you thought it was. Alas.

if you think about it: good ideas are the hardest to come by...
even if you're no longer a huge fan of your style, you can always reuse/rework to use the core idea, which is the most important part!

i'm very aware that you're probably too hard on yourself. someday i'll read it and prove you wrong!

I am probably most objective when it comes to my writing. My acting I simply go "Eeep!" and run away. It occured to me the other day that while I am paranoid about improv, what the heck do I think I'm doing every week at LARP? The parameters are more tightly defined, but really now.

I developed a critical eye for writing when I took Writer's Craft, so as I re-read this old stuff, I know I had a good idea and that there are some great moments and bits and themes. It's just the old execution that makes me go ick.
