Don't tell connie, but yes. It kind of is.

What!! You had fun writing? And it was ... EASY??? Have I taught you nothing? One must SUFFER for one's writing, one must SWEAT BLOOD and use said blood for one's ink.

On the other hand, follow your bliss, young grasshopper, write what makes you happy.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

On the other hand, follow your bliss, young grasshopper, write what makes you happy.

See, when I do that, people start crying.

*pout*

I've yet to see anyone actually protest that you've made them cry.

Don't pout, Plei! I suffered for that fic as well. Especially chapter two.

I've yet to see anyone actually protest that you've made them cry.

But I still feel GUILTY.

Like I should be paying for the Kleenex. And I still think Triptych was fairly happy, damn it.

Deb, I'm now insanely curious what you'd think of Absolution I and II. Hmm. (Also available at [link] )

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Plei, marked. Today is squatting on my head and making rude sounds.

One must SUFFER for one's writing, one must SWEAT BLOOD and use said blood for one's ink.

Nuh-UH! Not! Well, not always, anyway. I wrote Plainsong in under 90 days. Paaaaaaainless.

neener neener neener.

Of course, if you're discussing the sort of fiction that goes into balancing a personal chequebook - blood as red ink - oh yes. That one is rivers of sweat and grief.

Hyperbole, exaggeration for effect. Dare one say--metaphor?
