This was just my typical once-a-year foray into writing metafiction. I like writing about writing and I think romantic ideal are so easily incorporated into a metafictional piece. The metaphors are so easy. There are single sentences in this I read a million times over because I am so happy with them, some of the others I could take or leave.
There are a few typos, but I was actually writing with amazing speed today. This was pretty cool, because usually when I try this I jam the keys a lot or, more creatively, I screw up the sentence. I am sorry about those typos when I have struck wrong keys, and I hope the piece is still readable in those areas.
So, in general: it's okay I suppose. There are some ludicrously long sentences in places.
Well, least I'm writing, right?

It's a beautiful piece, i'm not sure i understand it.... i must go and think about it some more! <3<3<3
ReplyDeleteHarassing is good - we writers can be lazy creatures at the best of times ;)Sometimes we need a boot up the butt, or two, or three!
