http://skreyola.livejournal.com/268380.html I covet your responses to this entry from way back when.
Trust me, I'm not poking anyone or feeling ill toward anyone about this. I totally understand how life can grab you by the collar and whisk away a whole semester. You may have noticed I'm not around LJ much, these days. So I'm not mad at anyone, even if you gave me a time and missed it. I feel you have done me no wrong. Life is like this.
But I'm still eager to learn the answers to my questions, so if any of you reading this have time now, or in the future, please take a look at the earlier entry and leave me a comment.
In short, it basically says this:
- Right or wrong, I wonder if there is material value to some (certainly not all) of the entries I've written in my LJ over the past six years.
- Writing is work, and it's fair to be paid for work, and someone might benefit from something I've written.
- I have the means to produce writing on a fairly consistent basis, provided the motivation to do so (someone cares that I write entries rather than not write entries).
- I am considering a collection of my best writings.
- I don't know what are the best ones, so please tell me. I don't know if this idea is totally off-base, so if you think it's stupid/conceited/pointless, tell me that.
By the by, does anyone have a suggestion for the best means of publishing something like this?
