Myself, in retrospect

Dec 16, 2007 18:25

Well, today I was at work, which means I had eight hours to do stuff that would otherwise be considered procrastination, without much of a guilty conscience. So, I did some catching up, though I cheated a bit there, choosing mostly short ljs. And then I tagged about two thirds of my entries for 2003.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: hmpf December 18 2007, 17:41:57 UTC
you're the best thing that ever happened to my writing. Should I ever, *ever* manage to write something publishable it'll be dedicated to you. You 'get' me better than any beta I had before; you're honest, you can be harsh, but never unduly so, you trust me (i.e. if something's strange in something I write you'll assume I *meant* it to be strange - but you'll also tell me if it doesn't work)... etc.

All of this would be wonderful enough if it came from an 'average' writer; the fact that I fangirl you like whoah makes it a dream come true.

(I know the fangirling hasn't been so apparent lately; but I still do. I want to read your novel, dammit! *shakes fist at universe that keeps you from writing* I know I fangirl other writers more openly/obnoxiously - but those are all people who are not just good writers but, in addition to that, extremely prolific. Now, that is the kind of combination that sends me into paroxysms of self-abasement. I can deal with people who are good *or* prolific, but *both* at the same time... is a bit much. *g* So, you're saved from me making a fool of myself in front of you by the fact that you frequently seem to struggle to write. I can related to that.

That doesn't mean that I wouldn't be totally thrilled if you managed to overcome that and actually write more. Because I love you so damn much. *g*)
