Catharsis through revelation.

I've since fractured my onlien writing, I maintain 5 different journals, only my main updates with any frequency whatsoever, and the poetry journal only has 1 reader.
This is becuase only 3 people have ever been linked to the poetry journal, and they were given those links on MSN, I assume the first two didn't friend it.

But that's beside the point.
The point of my LJ is to catalogue my life, give my stories a public airing.

Actually, now that I think about it, I'm more proud of this:

As one of my finest examples of writing ever.

Maybe I should try and get it published somewhere.
Maybe I should try to write the story surrounding it.

Both of those posts catalogue events from my life, I find true pleasure in writing up accounts of things I've done, of divulging my emotions to the electronic widgets in my computer.

Sleep now, ramble more later.

Oh, and as a side note, LJ has at least 1 community devoted to fake deaths, and at least another 3 devoted to fakers in general.
And another couple of comms devoted to how to fake.
